Read the passage given below and answer the following questions as per the understanding of the passage (Question Nos. 46 to 50)
History has led to vast inequalities, leaving almost three-fourths of the world’s people living in less-developed countries and onefifth below the poverty line. The long-term impact of past industrialization, exploitation and environmental damage cannot be wished away. It is only right that development in this new century be even more conscious of its long-term impact. The problems are complex and the choices difficult. Our common future can only be achieved with a better understanding of our
common concerns and shared responsibilities.
Poverty and a degraded environment are closely inter-related, especially where people depend for their livelihoods primarily on the natural resource base of their immediate environment. Restoring natural systems and improving natural resource management practices at the grassroots level are central to a strategy to eliminate poverty.
The survival needs of the poor force them to continue to degrade an already degraded environment. Removal of poverty is
therefore a prerequisite for the protection of the environment. Poverty magnifies the problem of hunger and malnutrition. The
problem is further compounded by the inequitable access of the poor to the food that is available. It is therefore necessary to
strengthen the public distribution system to overcome this inequity. Diversion of common and marginal lands to ‘economically useful purposes’ deprives the poor of a resource base which has traditionally met many of their sustenance needs.
Literacy and a basic education are essential for enabling the poor to access the benefits offered by development initiatives and
market opportunities. Basic education is therefore a precondition for sustainable development. A sizeable proportion (about
60 percent according to some estimates) of the population is not integrated into the market economy. Ensuring the security of
their livelihoods is an imperative for sustainable development. In several areas, desirable limits and standards for consumption need to be established and applied through appropriate mechanisms including education, incentives and legislation. Several traditional practices that are sustainable and environment friendly continue to be a regular part of the lives of people in developing countries. It is therefore important to evaluate and make development decisions which structurally lead to a more sustainable society.
