Limiting resources

Confining availability of materials
Restricting resources

Description

Limiting resources involves deliberately restricting the availability or consumption of specific materials, energy, or assets to address overuse, scarcity, or environmental degradation. This strategy aims to ensure sustainability, prevent depletion, and promote equitable distribution by setting quotas, imposing regulations, or encouraging conservation. By controlling access and usage, it remedies problems such as resource exhaustion, pollution, and social inequity, fostering long-term resilience and responsible stewardship of essential resources.
