Is carbon dioxide a non renewable resources?

Answer 1

Fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas) are non-renewable.

They took millions and millions of years to form and are being used up in a time scale of hundreds of years. When they are gone, it will take millions of years again for the processes that create coal and oil to happen.

When we use them, they are gone. This is the opposite of renewable sources of energy, like wind and solar, which can be used over and over.

Answer 2

Renewable vs nonrenewable is a question of whether the resource is generated fast enough to replenish what we use it for. In this case carbon is taken from coal which takes 1000s to millions of years to create and we will have used almost all of our coal in the next 50 years.

So it is a nonrenewable resource.

Answer 3
