Abstract:

The thesis aims at obtaining the consumption pattern of exhaustible natural resources across the globe. It also aims at deriving the potential of alternate in-exhaustible natural resources for the future. The global consumption of natural resources is increasing at an alarming rate and hence, it is very important to derive the consumption patterns of these resources. The consumption as well as production of coal, oil and natural gas, the three widely used exhaustible natural resources across the globe is discussed in the thesis. The sustainability of these resources at the current rate of consumption is obtained and projections for its future availability are derived. The impact on the environment by using exhaustible natural resources like coal, oil and natural gas is obtained in the thesis.The habits of the young people are evaluated by obtaining data from them and its impact on the consumption pattern of these resources is derived. The daily usage of these resources through the consumption of energy obtained from it is derived in the thesis. An alternate use of other resources that are in-exhaustible is provided with the purpose of reducing the hazardous impact on the environment and increase the sustainability of the exhaustible natural resources.
