Natural resources are actual or potential sources of wealth that occur in nature, such as timber, water, fertile land, wildlife, minerals, metals, stones and hydrocarbons. Efficient use of limited natural resources is critical to ensuring everyone's fair share in the present time and in the future, especially as demographic pressures increase. Using renewable energy sources (such as sunlight, wind, and hydro-power), preventing land degradation and deforestation, and fostering use of energy-efficient technologies are among the key ways to guarantee the lasting utilization of natural resources at the lowest possible environmental cost.
