Imagine if oil supplies get exhausted, how will this affect our life style?

Correct Answer

Resources are vital for human survival as well as for maintaining the quality of life. If oil supplies get exhausted, it would severely disrupt our lifestyle because resources are the base for any developmental activity. The exhaustion would lead to socio-economic and environmental problems due to irrational consumption and over-utilisation.

Moreover, without resource planning, such depletion endangers sustainable existence. An equitable distribution of resources is essential for a sustained quality of life and global peace. If resources like oil are exhausted, the present trend of resource depletion would put the future of our planet in danger, affecting the sustainable development of all forms of life.
