Sustainable Resource Use

To use natural resources sustainably we need to rethink which resources we use and how we use them. We should also ask ourselves if we really need to use them in the first place.

Sustainable resource use occurs when our rate of consumption can continue forever without damaging the environment. To do this we should try to:

  • use renewable resources, like wind and solar energy, instead of non-renewable resources, like fossil fuels.
  • use those resources which cause less harm to the environment.
  • cut back on the amount of natural resources, and in particular non-renewable resources we use, by reducing, reusing and recycling.

Humans will always need natural resources to live, so when we consume resources we should keep in mind the needs of future generations.
