conservation policies
Environmental safeguard laws
Conservation policies are government regulations and programs designed to protect natural resources, wildlife, and ecosystems.
These range from restrictions on hunting and logging to protections for endangered species and wilderness areas.
The term often appears in environmental debates: The new conservation policies limit development near wetlands.
Conservation policies may also address resource management—water usage, soil preservation, or sustainable forestry practices.
