The best answer is: to ensure that natural resources are available for future generations.

Explanation:
- Sustainable use means managing resources so they are not depleted, preserving them for future people.
- While sustainable use also helps meet people's needs now (so option 2 is partly true), its core purpose is long‑term availability rather than just making daily life simpler.
- Options 3 and 4 are not correct: sustainability is not primarily about prompting scientific discovery, nor about preventing regional trade in resources.
