{{Infobox Award |name= Boy Scout<br>World Conservation Award |image = Panda-bs.jpg |created = 1976 |level = Boy Scouts }} The '''[[World Conservation Award]]''' may be earned at the [[Boy Scout]] level. {{reqs}} <noinclude> == Notes == # The World Conservation Award is worn on the [[uniform]] shirt, centered on the right pocket as a [[temporary patch]]. It can also be worn on the back of a [[merit badge sash]]. It does '''''not''''' replace the [[World Crest]] on the [[uniform]]. # Unlike the Cub Scout version of the patch, no conservation effort is outlined in the requirements for the Boy Scout version. The reason the volunteer aspect has been dropped in the jump from Cub Scouts to Boy Scouts is unclear, as community service oriented projects of maintenance and restoration are common to many requirements for Special Opportunity awards, as well as to Scouting in general. This alteration of approach may be in light of the fact that specific badge requirements encourage the Scout to conduct or participate in a project of their own while working on the badge, and they may very well have already been involved in some type of project while working on the badge. These service-based requirements however, are purely optional, as there are multiple alternatives. It is unclear whether this is in fact a loop hole, or intended by the awards' founders.
