Resources are vital for any developmental activity. But irrational consumption and over-

utilisation of resources may lead to socio-economic and environmental problems. To overcome

his concern about resource conservation in these words: “There is enough for everybody’s need

and not for any body’s greed.” He placed the greedy and selfish individuals and exploitative

nature of modern technology as the root cause for resource depletion at the global level.

He was against mass production and wanted to replace it with the production by the masses.
