Resource Consumption and Sustainability

Resource consumption refers to the use of natural resources, like water, energy, and materials, to meet human needs and desires. Sustainability involves managing these resources wisely to ensure they can support future generations. This means using resources at a rate at which they can be replenished and minimizing waste and environmental impact. Sustainable practices include recycling, conserving energy, and supporting renewable sources. By balancing our consumption with the planet's ability to regenerate, we help maintain a healthy environment and ensure that resources remain available for years to come.
