Question

1. Why do we need resources?

Answer 1

Answer:

Resources are important for the development of any country. For example, to generate energy, one need fossil fuels; and for industrial development, we require mineral resources. ... Natural resources are getting scarce with the increasing population, so it is essential to conserve them.

Answer 2

Explanation:

Even though some natural resources are renewable, we must use them carefully, so we don’t run out to them. Sometimes the natural resource cannot replenish itself as fast as humans are consuming, or using it. Full grown trees are an example of a renewable resource that we need to use carefully. Over time new trees can grow, but we do not want to use trees faster than they can replace themselves in forests. Sometimes too many trees are cut down in one forest. Clear-cutting is when every tree in an area is cut down.
