Whether your a conservative or not , what are you conserving ?
I will post my comment at a later time. I am interested in what the "community" has to say first , naturally

sperm?

Don't really think this is what you are asking but I will answer anyway...

Water: I build a lot of rain water harvest systems where my clients can water their gardens with collected rain water. Also stops them from having to put potable water treated by municipalities into their water garden. I guess I am saving water but saving the resources it takes to make drinkable water. Also helps in storm water management and much healthier for plants than treated water.

ecosystems: I build them with my water gardens. So I create an environment where wildlife that is pushed out of suburbia can thrive. As I type this from my tablet sitting next to my pond I am watching dragonflies zoom about. I see a bullfrog eyeballing me...he thinks I don't see him hiding between those lily pads. In the past I have watched a hawk grab one of my koi as a meal (as well as pick off a few rabbits), had a turtle call my backyard a home for a week, saw a bull snake slither through my native prairie, have had mallard ducks try and nest in my yard (they would have until they met my 2 Labrador retrievers). Every spring toads mate in my pond and I have tadpoles and then baby toads. We have a mass exodus as they spread through the subdivision looking for bugs to eat.

Pretty much I am conserving the natural world in an area where all my neighbors have declared war on nature with their chemicals (to kill "weeds" and bugs), and waste water trying to keep their grass green.

Our vegetable gardens pretty much double every year. We have multiple raised beds dedicated to vegetables as well as put vegetables where traditional landscape plants once grew. I have potatoes growing in an annual bed right next to my front door, sweet potatoes growing in a different former annual bed, a strawberry patch that used to be the home of flowering shrubs. If we want fresh raspberries or blue berries (if the birds dont beat us to them) we just go into the backyard and pick them. We have fruit trees growing in landscape beds where others plant flowering ornamental trees. I am teaching my 4 year old boy where food really comes from and how to try and be self sufficient.

You could say I am "that guy"...

Would love to move to the country and expand but for now I am doing just fine on my 1/4 acre.suburban lot

I am surprised to see no turn out. Is it a trick question ? I mean, if your an environmentalist you must be conserving something. Preservation through conservation. Is that not the idea. If your a conservative , politically speaking, Conserving the constitution is the ultimate goal. Again, I ask what are you conserving ? I have an alternative question , Whats the difference between a notsie and a tehrawist ? Environmentally , i am not conserving a dam thing , i fill my ext twice a week and i keep my a/c on 68 in my house. I feed my leftovers to the dog and water my lawn regularly. Politically........

My energy.
