Explain the statement - ‘we have got this Earth planet on lease from our future generations and not as an ancestral property from our ancestors.’
उत्तर
The statement that "we have got this Earth planet on lease from our future generations and not as an ancestral property from our ancestors" highlights the fact that the planet is not entirely the property of the current generation. Rather, it is our shared past that we need to preserve for future generations. In order to guarantee that future generations will have access to natural resources, it highlights how important it is for the current generation to use them responsibly.
Using resources to meet current demands without sacrificing the capacity of future generations to meet their own needs is known as sustainable development. This idea is especially crucial for fast decreasing non-renewable resources like coal and petroleum. We can make sure that these resources are used wisely and maintain long-term environmental stability by balancing development and conservation through sustainable development.
