Our national parks like Kanha, Bandhavgarh, Ranthambhore, Nagerhole are good examples of conservation and as for depletion of natural resources you can write about water, forest being cut, mining and likes.

conservation of natural vegitation is afforestation water conservation by way of having soak pits close to rigs and water bodies recharging earth with rain water and recycled water decongesting vehicular traffic minimal use of referegarants and airconditioners etc which may emit green house gases minimaise use of electricity these are few ways of conservation
depletion means in mass scale if u take deforestation, noise and air pollution due to industry and burning of fossil fuel etc wasting water unnecessaryly are some of the examples

Industry emerged as a global force in the 20th century, helping to meet the needs of a rapidly expanding human population. A century of economic progress, however, has extracted a steep price from the natural world. Plant and animal species are disappearing at an alarming rate; forests, wetlands, coral reefs and other vital ecosystems are in critical condition. Pollution, wasteful uses of natural resources, and climate change threaten natural habitats
and human livelihoods
Agriculture and Fisheries
Meeting humanity's growing demand for food and fiber without sacrificing natural ecosystems will be a major challenge in the decades ahead. The Agriculture & Fisheries program to promote farming and fishing practices that limit conversion of natural habitats, prevent pollution, and help to strengthen parks and protected areas.
Energy and Mining
As global demand grows for energy and minerals, natural resource development is expanding into some of the world's most fragile ecosystems. A comprehensive program will have to be evolved with industry and environmental leaders to integrate conservation and environmental protection into natural resource development. Priorities include best practices to reduce the footprint of resource development and to support conservation, metrics to measure industry's net impact, and criteria for deciding whether to undertake activities in sensitive areas.
Climate Change
Global climate change ranks with the loss of biodiversity and the depletion of freshwater resources as one of the 21st century's greatest environmental threats. While policies to control greenhouse gas emissions are being debated, many in industry are reducing and offsetting emissions on their own initiative. We will have to work with environmental organizations and industry leaders to promote cost-effective emissions reductions, with a special emphasis on the conservation and restoration of critical forest ecosystems.
Water
The Earth's freshwater resources are under severe pressure from booming human populations and a growing global economy. We will have to work with leading companies to promote business practices and public policies that help to conserve water resources, enhance water quality, and protect watersheds in critical ecosystems worldwide
Forestry
Scientific and public concern is mounting over rapid destruction of the Earth's remaining promary forests, which provide irreplaceable biodiversity values and many other vital ecological functions. Unchecked logging and road building are putting increased pressures on undisturbed forests throughout the world. A Forestry program in association with with leading timber and forest companies to develop global strategies for conserving primary forests while meeting society's wood fiber needs will have to be evolved..
