Question
Why do we need to manage our natural resources?

We need to manage our natural resources. The reasons for this are given below:

- This will prevent their exploitation for short term gain.
- This will ensure equal distribution of natural resources so that everyone can benefit from their development.
- This will also minimise the damage to the environment, which is caused during the extraction and usage of natural resources.
