By soil if you mean the ground which we use to build one then it is obvious. Renewable resources are the resources that theoretically will never run out, like the solar energy, the sun will not stop producing light for a very very very long time so we consider it renewable. Non renewable is oil because it is being produced by earth but at a very slow rate that can't cope with the human demands on it so it is considered nonrenewable.

the more we build the more "soil" we use and since earth doesn't grow lager to produce "soil" then theoretically after some time we will run out of "soil" to build, farm and live on. That only happens if the human population increases a lot of course.
