Solution

Resources are vital for any developmental activity. But irrational consumption and over-utilisation of resources has lead to socio-economic and environmental problems. Gandhiji was very apt in voicing his concern about resource conservation in these words: “There is enough for everybody’s need and not for any body’s greed.” He placed the greedy and selfish individuals and exploitative nature of modern technology as the root cause for resource depletion at the global level.
