Sustainable development - Environment that is healthy, but doesn't damage natural resources-
Unsustainable development - A consequence of overusing natural resources is the degradation of the environment.
Lifestyle in developed countries - Its natural resources account for 88% of its natural resources, while global income accounts for 85%. Pollution and consumption are higher.
Lifestyle in less developed countries - Globally, 78% of the world's population lives here, 12% of the natural resources are here, and 15% of the total income is here.
Causes unsustainability - MDCs versus LDCs are the main causes.
Sustainable lifestyle - In LDCs, natural resources should be diverted from MDCs as part of reducing the use of natural resources. It will lead to a reduction of the gap between developing and developed countries, resulting in sustainable development of the entire world

The natural resources are being conserved by a variety of government ministries and national and international agencies.
