Propose a sustainable development policy

Explanation:

Running a resource deficit which means that using natural resources faster than they can be regenerated would affect the economic growth of any country.

An economist in this case would propose sustainable development policies which would ensure that the current generation does not use up the resource available. Policy that would limit the use of non renewable resource would be proposed. Policy that would ensure alternative resource so as to ensure diversity and use up existing resources. All these policies must ensure that economic growth does not decline but keeps increasing.
