A renewable resource is one which does not get used up. Sunlight is a very important resource upon which we depend for many things, but no matter what uses we may make of sunlight, we do not use it up; the sun shines just as brightly. Similarly, we can use rain in whatever way we like, and there will always be more rain. In comparison, something such as a gold mine is not renewable. Once you dig out all the gold, it is gone, there is no more in that particular mine, and there are only a limited number of mines available. It is possible to mine all the gold in the world, and have nothing more to mine.
