Sustainable Management:

The controlled use of a resource in such a way that its present availability and continuous flow to the future generation is ensured without any disturbance to the environment is known as sustainable management. The resources should be used in such a way that it does not hinder the present progress and also does not put at stake, the future availability of the resources. Forest resources need to be used in a manner, which is environmentally and developmentally sound. The benefits of the controlled exploitation should go to the local people.

If the resource exploitation will be too high, then the economic and social development will be faster, but the environment will further deteriorate. So, natural resources should be used continuously in such a way that economic growth and ecological conservation should go hand in hand.
