Resources
The things directly obtained from nature and are useful to man are called natural resources. Our nature is endowed with innumerable resources such as air, sunlight, wind, trees, water, etc.
The living resources are called biotic resources and non-living resources are called abiotic resources.
Resources can be classified as renewable (available at all times) and non-renewable (exhaustible resources).
Decrease in the availability and deterioration in the quality of resources due to reckless usage is called resource depletion. This resulted in depletion of resources and changes in the environment.
