Answer 1

$\Large\underline \mathbb\pink{ANSWER}$

Introduction:

⏩Sustainable development means the development that takes place without damaging the environment or compromising the ability of the future generations to meet their own needs.

• The resources are not free gifts of nature. Their exploitation will lead to their depletion and thus halt on development. e.g., resources like petroleum are exhaustible resources, their reckless exploitation will lead to their deficiency.

• Resources are vital for development. Industries, agriculture, etc all depend on resources. Economic development depends on resource availability.

• Millions of people earn their livelihood and sustain on resources. Resources like minerals, coal, are prerequisite for development, water, food, etc.are necessary for survival to protect future generations.
