Discussion question and peer reviews

I don’t know how to handle this Sociology question and need guidance.

DISCUSSION POST MUST BE 10+ SENTENCES AND THE PEER REVIEWS MUST BE 7+ SENTENCES PLEASE USE YOUR OWN WORDS AND DO NOT COPY FROM OTHER SITES STAY ON TOPIC ,BE POSITIVE , AND DO NOT COMMENT ON GRAMMAR ERRORS. TALK DIRECTLY TO CLASSMATES IN PEER REVIEWS!!! YOU MUST COMPLETE BOTH PEER REVIEWS AND DISCUSSION QUESTION!! THANK YOU.

Accessing Non-Renewable Resources

As Hite and Seitz (2016) discuss in Chapter 9: Alternative Futures, developed and developing countries that have access to the planet’s resources (because they can buy those resources from others or because those resources exist in abundance in that country) continue to grow at a fast pace, placing a tremendous strain on the availability of nonrenewable resources.

Briefly, what non-renewable natural resources are most at risk of depletion?

Discuss some sustainable development models that have broad applicability to the needs and consumption demands of both developing and developed countries.

2) PEER REVIEW #1 (ANIKA)

Two non-inexhaustible common assets that are most in danger of exhaustion are Coal and Natural Gas. Coal is the most utilized non-renewable energy source. It is evaluated that we have enough coal to last around 180 years. Given that request doesn’t increment. Oil is an asset that empowers worldwide transportation, in addition to other things one can possibly envision the effect if this is drained. In light of statics, it is evaluated to be sufficient to supply the world’s interest an additional 46 years.
Manageable advancement to build up a world that builds up a superior situation, higher-pay nations step up to the plate in future improvements to bring down their asset utilization. Lower-salary countries center assets to regions or individuals that most need it monitoring what they have and regular assets turned out to be increasingly accessible. It’s not simply regular assets, take a shot at the completion or was of closure destitution, better instruction, and human services. Ladies Empowerment or if nothing else sex equity. Better financially with more access to occupations. Feasible advancement is full circle.

Water, oil, fossil fuels, and forests are most at risk of depletion. Circular and recycling economies are arguably the best sustainable development models with broad applicability and universally satisfying.

Explanation:

The non-renewable resources most at risk of depletion are water, oil and fossil fuels, and forests. Trees are destroyed in the millions each year, which depletes our oxygen, increases our greenhouse gas emissions, and reduces ecological diversity. Fossil fuels account for about fifty percent of our energy use; some estimates say we only have two or three decades worth of more oil at current consumption rates. Even more seriously, under 2% of the world’s water is drinkable, and only about 0.2% of the world’s drinkable water is actually saved for us to drink. Efforts are being made to stretch or replace these resources, but this is proving difficult with our high rates of consumption, compounded by the fact water cannot be replaced.

While most agree sustainability is beneficial for humans and nature alike, an issue arises in adopting the correct sustainability development model in order to sustain our natural resources while still developing as individual societies and as an overall species. Developing countries often cite growth and expansion as priorities, while developed or more developed countries value growth but also cite environmental and resource conservation as a priority. Fortunately, there exists sustainable development models that have broad applicability to the needs and consumption demands of both developing and developed countries, such as circular and recycling economies. Any country, developing or developed, can benefit from recycling, for example, because this promotes environmental protection without depriving anyone of usable resources.
