ABSTRACT
The sustenance of humans and their lifestyle depends on the availability of and access to resources. While the need for resources is satised through exploitation, and sometimes destruction of the natural environment, in the context of humans it is also accompanied with waste generation and environmental pollution. This resource exploitation and consequent waste and pollution is chiey responsible for threatening the sustainability of both present and future generations, by disrupting nature’s ability to maintain resource availability. Hence, unrestrained resource consumption threatens our own survival and sustainability.
