उत्तर
Both A and R are true and R explains A.
Explanation:
The assertion is true since renewable resources such as fresh water, woods, and soil are rapidly depleting worldwide due to human consumption rates that far surpass their natural regeneration times. This reasoning is also true and provides an exact explanation for the assumption, as the rapid acceleration of industrial production and economic development creates an unsustainable, unrelenting demand that immediately leads to the overexploitation of these vital natural resources.
