    Reduce, re-use and recycle in that order of importance. Reduce consumption of the resource through better efficiency, lifestyle changes or by consuming renewable alternatives. Reduction has the greatest impact on conservation. Re-use the resource as much as possible before recycling. While recycling is better than discarding, it is the least efficient way of conserving a resource.

    Abundant resources such as aluminum have a huge impact on other non-renewable resources like coal or natural gas because of the energy they require to extract. While re-use is often not possible, like in soda cans, recycling is far more valuable over disposal.

    ou can conserve nonrenewable energy resources by making less use of devices that consume the resources, using the resources more efficiently and using alternate technologies. While these are effective ways of conserving resources such as gasoline and electricity from power plants fueled by coal or oil, they apply differently depending on what kind of device, process or machine you are talking about.
