Conservation Effects
Effects of Conservation on the stream
Conservation is a tool. It is like fire. Used properly it is beneficial. But even beneficial things have effects. Fire produces heat and if that is what we want that is a good thing. But it also consumes fuel. Which do I value more, the fuel or the heat? Conservation protects the soil, water and air. Those are good things. But is also slows or stops some water from getting to the stream. It produces more vegetation. That may or may not be a good thing. Saying that conservation is only good and has no side effects is inaccurate. To be fair and honest all effects should be measured.
