Which of the following statements help in sustainable development with reference to present day resource availability ?

(a) Reducing consumption of resources
(b) Increasing resource use
(c) Recycling resources
(d) Reusing things

Choose the correct options :

  • A.(a), (c), (d)
  • B.(a), (b), (c)
  • C.(b), (c), (d)
  • D.(a), (b), (d)

Answer: A

The statements that help sustainable development are (a), (c) and (d).

Sustainable development means using resources carefully so that present needs are met while enough is left for future generations. Reducing consumption (a), recycling (c) and reusing things (d), the 'three Rs', all lower the demand on limited resources.

Increasing resource use (b) works against sustainability and would deplete resources faster, so every option that includes (b) is wrong.
