2. How can natural resources be
exploited?
Exploitation
Using something carefully so
that it is still available for
future generations.
Sustainable
Rearing too many animals on land
so roots of vegetation are eaten.
This means that no plants can
grow.
Overgrazing
The use of a resource in a non
sustainable way.
