</header>
<p style="margin-left:44px; text-align:justify;">
Solutions to natural resource use issues must be based on sustainability principles: an ecosystem's ability to maintain ecological processes, biodiversity, and productivity over time. This means respecting all life forms and nature's cycles, valuing cultural diversity, strengthening sustainable local economies, considering environmental and social costs in production processes, and promoting benefit-sharing (share power in decision-making and divide the goods and services created sustainably).
