What happens to natural resources when they are used?

When Natural Resources are used, they are depleted or diminished, often leading to a reduction in their availability for future generations. This consumption can result in environmental degradation, habitat loss, and disruption of ecosystems. Additionally, over-extraction can lead to scarcity, increasing competition for these resources and potentially causing economic and social conflicts. Sustainable management practices are crucial to ensure that natural resources are preserved and replenished.
