Natural resources are limited, whether as a non-renewable or renewable. Planet Earth has a natural capacity and it is given for the human community. The current pace of development of the world economy and the accelerated population growth are threatened and may soon lead to exhaustion of non-renewable energy resources and exceed the speed of regeneration of renewable resources (water, energy, food), thus leading into questioning the survival of human communities and future generations. Only through the application of the principles of sustainable development (sustainable use of resources) and implementation of logic survival one can assure safe and steady growth to be followed by present and future needs of human being.
