Fossil fuels.
Nonrenewable resources such as fossil fuels, fresh water, and soils are being used up or degraded by humans.
Renewable energy sources such as solar, wind, hydro, and geothermal power are considered the opposite of fossil fuels. These sources are considered sustainable and have lower environmental impacts compared to fossil fuels.
The production of synthetic products like plastic requires fossil fuels as a raw material, typically derived from oil and natural gas. These fossil fuels are used in the extraction, processing, and manufacturing stages of plastic production, leading to an increased overall demand for fossil fuels. Additionally, the transportation of plastic products also relies on fossil fuels, further contributing to the reliance on these non-renewable resources.
Fossil fuels are natural resources formed over millions of years from decayed plants and animals, such as coal, oil, and gas. Synfuels, on the other hand, are man-made fuels produced through chemical processes using renewable or non-renewable resources. While fossil fuels are finite and contribute to environmental issues like climate change, synfuels offer potential for cleaner burning and can be produced from diverse feedstocks.
Onced used ,it takes many millions of years to replace fossil fuels.
Energy resources that are not fossil fuels are often collectively called "renewable resources." These include wind, solar, hydroelectric, geothermal energy sources.
"Fossil fuels" refers to fuels, such as carbon and petroleum, that are generally believed to originate as fossils.
Fossil fuels include the Natural gases, the Petrol, the Coal.

Fossil fuels are called finite resources because they are formed over millions of years from the remains of plants and animals, and their formation is a slow process. Once these fossil fuels are extracted and burned, they cannot be replaced within a human lifetime or even many lifetimes due to the long timescales involved in their formation. This makes them limited in quantity and not easily replenished.

Fossil fuels that can be obtained using current technology are called proven reserves.
