 How to save resources 如何节约资源
     A resource is any physical or virtual entity of limited availability that needs to be consumed to obtain a benefit from it. In most cases, commercial or even non-commercial factors require resource allocation through resource management. There are two types of resources; renewable and non-renewable.
     The purely economic value of a resource is controlled by supply and demand. This is, however, a narrow perspective on resources as there are many things that cannot be measured in money.
     Natural resources like forests, mountains etc. are considered beautiful so they have aesthetic value. Resources also have an ethical value as well, because it is widely recognized that it is our moral duty to protect and conserve them for the future generations.
     Natural resources are derived from the environment. Many of them are essential for our survival while others are used for satisfying our needs. Natural resources may be further classified in different ways; on the basis of origin, resources may be divided into: Biotic resources, Abiotic resources, Potential resources, Stock, Reserved Resources and Actual resources. On the basis of renewability, natural resources can be categorized into: Renewable Resources, Non-renewable Resources and Conditionally Renewable Resources.
     Human beings are also considered to be resources. The term Human Resources can also be defined as the skills, energies, talents, abilities and knowledge that are used for the production of goods or the rendering of services.
     In a project management context, human resources are those employees responsible for undertaking the activities defined in the project plan.
     Resources may be also split into tangible and intangible resources. Tangible resources are those resources like equipment, vehicles which have actual physical existence; whereas intangible resources are things like corporate images, brands and patents that are present but cannot be grasped or contained.
     Many resources cannot be consumed in their original form. They have to be processed in order to change them into more usable commodities. This is known as resource development. With increasing population, the demand for resources has also increased. However, there is a difference in distribution of resources between regions or countries. Developed countries use more natural resources than developing countries.
     随着全球范围内人口的增多,对资源的需求也在不断增加。然而,不同国家或地区之间的资源分布(resource distribution)情况各不相同。发达国家所使用的资源要多于发展中国家。
