The correct answer is (d) an equitable distribution of resources, because it promotes fairness and balanced access for all sections of society. This is a goal, not a problem. In contrast, options (a), (b) and (c) represent serious challenges such as greed-based depletion, concentration of resources among elites and reckless exploitation, which create inequality and environmental damage.
