Correct Answer
The strategies of sustainable development focus on promoting practices and technologies that are environmentally friendly and economically viable in the long term. Among the options provided:
(A) Bio composting: This is a sustainable practice as it involves recycling organic waste into nutrient-rich compost, reducing the need for chemical fertilizers.
(B) Use of CNG in public transport: Compressed Natural Gas (CNG) is considered a cleaner and more sustainable alternative to traditional fossil fuels like gasoline and diesel.
(D) Use of solar energy: Solar energy is a renewable and sustainable source of power, as it doesn't deplete natural resources and has minimal environmental impact.
On the other hand:
(C) Use of thermal power plants: Thermal power plants typically rely on the burning of fossil fuels, which is not considered a sustainable energy source due to its negative environmental impact and finite nature.
(E) Use of wood: The sustainability of using wood depends on responsible forestry practices. If wood is sourced from sustainably managed forests, it can be considered a sustainable resource. However, if it involves deforestation or unsustainable logging practices, it is not considered sustainable.
So, the correct answer is (1) (A), (B), (D) Only.
