Conservation form refers to an arrangement of an equation or system of equations, usually representing a physical system, that show that a property represented is conserved by making overall change equal to zero. An equation is a mathematical statement, in symbols, that two things are the same (or equivalent). ... In mathematics, simultaneous equations are a set of equations where variables are shared. ...
An example of a set of equations written in conservation form could be the Euler equations of fluid flow: In fluid dynamics, the Euler equations govern the compressible, Inviscid flow. ...
Each of these represents the conservation of mass, momentum and energy, respectively. The law of conservation of mass/matter, also known as law of mass/matter conservation (or the Lomonosov-Lavoisier law), states that the mass of a closed system of substances will remain constant, regardless of the processes acting inside the system. ... In physics, a conservation law states that a particular measurable property of an isolated physical system does not change as the system evolves. ...

The contemporary conservation movement has broaden from the early movement's emphasis on use of sustainable yield of natual resouces and preservation of wilderness areas to include preservation of biodiversity.
The nascent conservation movement slowly developed in the 19th century, starting first in the scientific forestry methods pioneered by the Germans and the French in the 17th and 18th centuries.
Conservation as such has historically been associated with religion - Zoroaster, Tao, and Islam (hima) in particular - but only in the 19th century became explicitly associated with Christian morality, which was formed in part in opposition to Pagan nature worship.
The Conservation Ontario watershed model has received worldwide recognition over its history and the watershed is now recognized as one of the premier natural ecosystem units on which to manage resources.
The Conservation Authorities Act provided the means by which the province and the municipalities of Ontario could join together to form a Conservation Authority within a specified area- the watershed- to undertake programs for natural resource management.
Conservation Ontario is the signal of the shift to a new, more entrepreneurial way of conducting environmental business and it focuses on excellence in managing and delivering watershed-based ecosystem resources and services.
