Natural resources are substances or materials found in the environment that are utilized by living organisms for their sustenance and economic activities.
These resources can be renewable or non-renewable and include minerals, water, air, soil, forests, and biodiversity. Human societies depend on these resources for food, energy, and various products.
Sustainable management is crucial to ensure their availability for future generations, as overexploitation can lead to environmental degradation.
Conservation efforts and responsible consumption aim to balance human needs with the preservation of the Earth’s natural ecosystems and biodiversity.
