Can you replace natural resources?
Natural resources can be categorized into renewable and non-renewable resources. Renewable resources, like solar energy and timber, can be replenished naturally over time, while non-renewable resources, such as fossil fuels and minerals, are finite and cannot be replaced once depleted. While technology can help create alternatives or substitutes for some resources, complete replacement is often not feasible for non-renewable resources. Sustainable management and conservation practices are essential to ensure the longevity of renewable resources and mitigate the depletion of non-renewable ones.
