yes it is
Yes.Peat is considered a non-renewable resource because it takes more than a human lifetime for peat to form naturally.
non renewable :)
Peat is classed as a non-renewable fossil fuel. It was made hundreds of years ago. It could renew if we could wait long enough. Renewable refers to things like wind or sunshine, which keep on coming even if we use them to produce energy. Other things are classed as renewable if we can grow them as fast as we use them. Like vegetables. Other things get used up and don't renew, like rain-forests and minerals.
First of all it is very easy to get confused with the terms peat and peat moss. They are actually two different entities both found in peat bogs. Peat is the sediment found at the bottom of peat bogs that is mined and burned like a fossil fuel (peat is actually a precursor of coal). Like coal it is considered to be a non-renewable fuel source since it takes so long to accrete (a rate of 1mm per year). Peat moss, on the other hand, is a living plant (such as Sphagnum) that lives at the top of a peat bog. Peat Moss is what is harvested and used to make the soil products you will find at plant stores. It eventually dies and adds to the layers of peat underneath. Unlike peat, peat moss is a renewable resource as much as timber is a renewable resource. When peat moss is harvested from the top of a peat bog, it can take as long as 20 years to grow back to its former size. Because of that peat moss is harvested on a slow cycle similar to forest management cycles and is done leaving the underlying peat undisturbed. Although peat and peat moss are found in the same bogs, they are not normally harvested and mined together. This is because peat is harvested and used as a fuel source in places such as far northern Europe where trees (and wood for burning) is scarce. On the other hand Canada is the primary supplier of peat moss. It has a large boreal forest and no consumer demand for peat as a fuel source.
Wind is a renewable resource. Oil is not a renewable resource.
renewable
no
A renewable resource is when a natural resource can replenish itself.
Yes the ocean is a renewable resource
renewable because it comes from treesit is a renewable resource because it comes from trees.renewablepaper is A renewable resource
Bauxite is not a renewable resource.
It is renewable!
