Solution

Dear Student, ..Conserve usually applies to things that are endangered or low in number.... ...Water conservation includes all the policies, strategies and activities to sustainably manage the natural resource of fresh water, to protect the hydrosphere, and to meet the current and future human demand.Conservation of water means a careful and economical use of water. We should conserve water as it is a precious natural resource. ...Save can be used in rescue situations and for things you want to collect......So, saving water just comes under conservation of water since the world is heading towards water crises due to the excessive and uneconomical use of water by the large human population....Regards
