Answer to Question 1

Conservation concentrates on the management of natural resources for the economic and political good of humanity,
in the long run. Preservation seeks to maintain something in its original state without the possibility of its
direct use by people



Answer to Question 2

The human population level has grown at an increasing rate (except briefly during the Black Plague) for the
past 8,000 years. There were an estimated 10 million humans in 6,000 B.C.E. compared to over 7 billion today.
Population levels are expected to level off in the next 250 years
