INTRODUCTION
Resources are essential for survival of humanity and environment as well. Natural resources
are very essential as well as rare therefore requires effective management by every individual.
These resources consist of renewable, non-renewable, living and fossil fuels which are very rare
as well as necessary for the existence of human being. By reducing the consumption of harmful
chemicals and gases, healthy and pollution free environment can be developed. Natural resources
management refers to process through which renewable and non-renewable resources are used as
well as managed in an effective manner for present and future generation. In the present report
five main topics are going to be discussed which includes their associated with management of
natural resources.
MAIN BODY
There are ample number of natural resources which needs to be managed and controlled by
the surroundings so they can develop positive, secure and healthy environment. There are four
main kind of natural resources which includes renewable, non-renewable, living as well as fossil
fuels. All these resources are quite essential to an individual’s life and their existence.
Management of natural resources help in securing and creating positive atmosphere for the future
and present generations. Some of the most significant natural resource management are going to
be discussed in this report which are as follows:
Topic 1 Property Rights
In this competitive era, property rights are important in which rules and regulations are
stated and without owner permission it is not possible to use them for personal or commercial
purpose. With help of these rights, resources related to owner’s land, or assets remain safe and
secure. This results in enhancing the sustainability of environment for longer period of time. Use
of resources by third party is prohibited and restricted until and unless owner allow to use. In this
process, authority is being considered as powerful tool to protect the rights from other. It is
important to have proper knowledge about these property rights so that it can be used whenever
there is a need and requirement. Government take strict actions if resources of owner property
are used without permission. It is very essential for the legal authorities to examine before
providing licence to the people for what use they are buying property. Along with this, it is also
very necessary for the government or legal authorities to set some standards for using hazardous
3

chemicals and resources. If any of the people break the laws several policies need to be
developed so that they can effectively be punished by them.
Topic 2 Integrating people into Natural Resource Management
Natural resource management is considered to be essential so that resources are used
effectively. It is systematic process and development of this concept depends upon how people
are engaged in saving the natural resources. So, integrating people into NRM is crucial so that
goals and objectives are achieved in appropriate manner. Also, new methods can be used for
NRM such as limit the need and requirement so that resources are used at minimum quantity.
Effective decision making assists in improving the process at rapid level amongst the regional
community. This can be used as social responsibility so that more people are involved in the
approach. This whole method increases the degree of sustainable development. Various types of
programmes and exhibition are implemented to gain more attention towards the development of
environment.
Topic 3 Valuing Natural Resources
In environment, every resource has value depending upon its use. It is crucial to determine
the value of every resource so that optimum use is present. A value decides the traits of thing and
its importance. But, value and valuing are two different terms because in environmental concept
value is assigned to resource by putting or applying monetary term. Because they help in
evaluating the services which can be provided by resource to the society. This is the reason
through which importance of environment as well as resource is increasing at rapid level. So, to
limit the services from the resources and to safeguard the safety of environmental management,
government has put some laws, legislations & policies. Every person is required to value the
available natural resources as they are limited in number and the population is increasing as the
speed of light. This might affect the overall environment in a negative manner and create
pollution and suffocation to the surroundings.
Topic 4 Management of Natural Resources
Natural resources are very essential for the existence of human beings. It is very
important for every individual’s person to manage and control the mis use of natural resources.
Environmental resources are also known as natural resource management. NRM define as the
management of all the natural resources which includes land, soil, animals, plants and many
4

more with an aim securing life’s for both future as well as present generations. Effectively
managing natural resources help in creating better life for the future generation and for every
person need to reduce the mis management of different natural resources. It is very essential for
managing and controlling the use of natural resources as they are very limited in quality. As the
population increases on a rapidly basis which as a result enhances the demand and requirement
of resources. So there is a necessity to minimize the consumption or reducing the exploitation of
any sort of natural resources. This will assist in managing as well as controlling natural resources
which is required for the future generation.
Topic 5 Creating Pollution free atmosphere
It is very essential for the people to create pollution free atmosphere and for this eliminating
excessive use of natural resources, reducing consumption of harmful and hazardous gases and
chemical & many more. It has been analysed that natural resource management mainly deals in
managing the manner in which individuals as well as natural resources interacts with each other.
For every people it is very important to have healthy and positive working atmosphere in order to
spend their life and for this it is necessary to create pollution free surroundings. By conserving
the use of water, increase consumption of bio-degradable substances, adopting energy-saving
goods and services are some measures with the help of pollution free surrounding can be created.
Every individual person need to contribute there share for creating pollution free atmosphere so
that it will help future generation in a positive manner. along with this, it has also been said that
with the help of reuse, recharge & recycle method can improve the quality of environment in an
effective and positive manner.
CONCLUSION
With the assistance of above stated report, it has been concluded that it is very essential for
every individual to manage natural resources in an effective manner so that positive and healthy
atmosphere can be developed. Along with this, it has also been identified that effective natural
resources, health of individuals living within the surroundings can be enhanced. It is also very
necessary to reduce the consumption of harmful gases, chemicals as well as minimise pollutions
so that we can effectively manage natural resources and create healthy surroundings. In addition
to this, it has also been identified that managing and controlling natural resources is very
essentials as they are very limited and every person have to work for it. Furthermore, it is also
5

examined that it is quite difficult to manage natural resources but on the other hand it is very
important to manage it so every person can effectively and efficiently spend their livelihood.
