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. So phosphorus is non-renewable. When we use it all up, there's none left.
