Sustainable

Real World Example

Imagine you're trying to manage the balance of your monthly budget so you don't run out of money before the end of the month. Just like you allocate your funds in a way that allows you to cover your expenses without going into debt, using resources sustainably involves consuming them in a manner that maintains the health of the ecosystem over time. Just as overspending can lead to financial trouble, overusing natural resources can harm the environment, so both require careful planning and moderation to ensure they remain viable for the future.
