Somebody really has to answer this question because right now I'm doing a project and I need the answer! ;)
---------------------------------------
Plastic is made from Natural Resources - the materials come from oil and the energy to produce the bottle comes from coal, natural gas, or other sources depending where it is made.
While not a "natural" resource, I do consider plastic bottles resources because they contain large amounts of energy. Currently, a large percent of plastic bottles end up in landfills - rendering this resource useless. Instead, the plastic can be recycled so as to save virgin resources from being mobilized, it can be burned in a waste-to-energy plant to reduce its volume and create electricity, or it could be thermochemically converted into a variety of synthetic fuels and chemicals via various industrial processes (namely gasification/Fischer-Tropsch synthesis).
Peanuts are a natural resource, as they come from plants that can be grown and harvested. They are considered renewable, as new peanuts can be grown each year through farming practices.
A natural resource is any material or substance that exists in nature and is used by humans for various purposes. Examples include water, minerals, air, sunlight, and trees. Natural resources can take many forms, from raw materials like oil and gas to renewable resources like wind and solar energy.
No, temperature itself is not a natural resource. Temperature is a measure of the average kinetic energy of particles in a material, and it influences the behavior of natural resources but is not considered a resource in itself.
True. Sugar comes from Sugar cane, sugar cane comes from bamboo. Bamboo is a natural resource.
Rice is a natural resource that is cultivated by humans. It is a type of grass that is grown in flooded fields and is a staple food source for a large portion of the world's population.

Not a natural resource, but we are making it one by finding new uses for recycled plastic, like carpeting for the home.
A baseball isn't a natural resource, but what its made of are natural resource. Some natural resources in Baseball Bats are wood, metal, lead, and plastic (the grip)
there natural ReSoUrCe is growing crops like:corn,soybeans,plastic(dont grow it lol),and food.!!~!
cyrus
Sunlight, water, trees. Plastic is not a natural resource, as is produced by humans from other materials.
No, duct tape is not a natural resource. It is a synthetic adhesive tape made from materials like rubber, plastic, and fabric.
Plastic, in most cases, is made from hydrocarbons.Hydrocarbons are a product of natural gas and crude oil.Natural gas and crude oil are limited natural resources (they are running out)Therefore, plastic is not an inexhaustible resource.andPlastic is a manufactured materialResources are recovered directly from the Earth or grownTherefore, plastic is not a resource
Not really sure what you are asking, but artificial turf is made of plastic. Plastic is made from petroleum (a natural resource).
Natural resources are things found in the earth. Things that are not natural resources are things that are manmade. For example, a manmade resource includes a telephone. Plastic is not a natural resource. Trees, sunlight, and water are natural resources.
It provide resources for companies such as Mr. Mario and his plastic
No, plastic is not a renewable resource. It is primarily derived from nonrenewable fossil fuels such as oil and natural gas through a chemical process. Once plastic is created and used, it cannot be easily recycled back into its original form.
