There are three principles to conservation. Reuse, recycle and repurpose. before junking an item can your item be repaired, or used by someone you know? I would add to that, you need also to think very carefully about your purchases, do you really need a new thing? Food waste is another area for the wannabe conservationist.

Reduce energy use, since this reduces energy demand. Reduce use of materials, either by selecting long term use products (mugs instead of throw away cuts, rags instead of paper towels) or buying recycled goods. Reuse where possible instead of replacing, such as driving a car until the wheels fall off instead of buying a new one every few years.
