Renewable resources are resources which can be recycled or re-grown within a human timescale, or whose consumption does not diminish their abundance.
Fossil fuels, such as oil and coal, are not renewable because while they can be re-made through natural processes, it requires geological timescales (millions of years). Solar energy, while technically not renewable, is not reduced by its consumption.
The use of renewable resources are much more useful than non-renewable resources because using renewable resources is sustainable. Non-renewable resources are depleted by their use -- eventually, they run out; the world has a finite supply of oil and coal, and once depleted, the supplies cannot regenerate in any useful timescale (again, it takes millions of years for natural processes to create coal or oil).
Renewable and non-renewable resources are used for many different things.
Renewable resources (two examples):
Non-renewable resources (two examples):
Geothermal Resources are renewable resources.
No, it is a nonrenewable resources.
It depends on what resources you are talking about
It is because, more energy comes from the nonrenewable resources than the renewable ones. Therefore we use more of the nonrenewable resources.
because non renewable resources are different and once there gone we can't get them back, for example trees are renewable cuz when you cut one you can plant another and it will grow again.
nonrenewable
Renewable and nonrenewable resources are basically the same all countries.
They consume different amounts of renewable and nonrenewable resources because there countries are different and because they don't have the same renewable and nonrenewable resources
Geothermal Resources are renewable resources.
Nonrenewable resources.
it is half a renewable and nonrenewable resource
No, it is a nonrenewable resources.
Yes, they have nonrenewable resources and they are coal,oil, and gas
renewable and nonrenewable resources
nonrenewable resources
What are nonrenewable resources? Nonrenewable resources are natural resources that cannot be replenished within a short timeframe due to their limited quantity, such as coal, oil, and natural gas. What are renewable resources? Renewable resources are natural resources that can be replenished naturally over time, such as sunlight, wind, and biomass, making them sustainable for long-term use. Why are nonrenewable resources considered unsustainable? Nonrenewable resources are finite in quantity and take millions of years to form, making them unsustainable for continued use at the current rate of consumption, leading to concerns of depletion and environmental damage. How do renewable resources differ from nonrenewable resources in terms of environmental impact? Renewable resources generally have lower environmental impact compared to nonrenewable resources, as they produce fewer greenhouse gas emissions and have minimal pollution during extraction, production, and consumption.
Renewable and nonrenewable both give off energy needed for the planet.
