Solutions...

      There are many solutions to the issue of resource depletion, but not all are very practical.  As technology advances scientist come up with more and more ways to keep different resources from completely being depleted.  One practical solution is to buy depleted resources from other countries that still have an abundant supply of them, however, this can get expensive.  Another practical solution is to explore the option of finding needed resources in space on other planets.  A less likely solution is to find new ways to produce and made these resources that we are loosing.  One more less practical solution is to discover different resources that produce the same actions and play the same roles as the depleted  did, allowing us to use these alternatice resources so that we have a way to avoid having to buy or trade for expensive resources from other countries.  As you can see there are many solutions, some more practical that others, to the topic of resources depletion.
