It is not the Natural Resources by themselves that harm the Earth's environment -
it is what humans do with the natural resources that cause the problems
to the environment and to the health of living things, including other human beings.
The burning of fossil fuels in factories to make products and power, and the fuels used by trucks, automobiles and jet planes and homes have caused acid rain and a great increase in carbon dioxide and pollution in the atmosphere. Forests have been destroyed which used to absorb carbon dioxide. Carbon dioxide traps heat in our lower atmosphere.
Scientists believe that human activities such as these have led to global warming.

What are nonrenewable energy sources?
Natural resources that are used up more quickly than they can be replaced are nonrenewable resources. Earths supply of nonrenewable resources are limited . You use nonrenewable resources when you take home groceries in plastic bags, paint a wall, or travel by car. plastic, paints, and gasoline are made from important nonrenewable resources called petroleum, or oil, petroleum is formed mostly from the remains of microscopic marine organisms buried in the earths crust. It is nonrenewable because it takes hundreds of millions of years for it to form.
How do you distinguish between nonrenewable and renewable energy?
Renewable means that those resources will be replaced when they are used - either they grow back, like trees, or they are produced constantly, like sunlight. Nonrenewable means that once you use them, they are used, and when you use everything, there will be no more. Resources like coal and oil are nonrenewable because it takes so long to make more (by pressure deep inside the ground for millions of years) that once we use them, no more will be made during our lives. A: Renewable: Renewable energy-or resources-are replenished onced they have been removed and used. They will either grow back, or keep doing what they are doing. Meaning that they are always being produced. Non-renewable: Nonrenewable energy-or resources-are not replenished once they have been removed, taken away, and used. Once it is gone, it will never come back.
What is true about the nonrenewable energy resource?
Nonrenewable energy resources, such as fossil fuels (coal, oil, natural gas), are finite and cannot be replenished on a human timescale. Their extraction and use contribute to environmental pollution and climate change. Dependence on nonrenewable energy sources can lead to energy security issues and price fluctuations.
What is the energy resources that cannot be replaced or are replaced more slowly than they are used?
Non-renewable energy resources, such as fossil fuels (coal, oil, natural gas), fall into this category. These resources are finite and take millions of years to form, making them unsustainable for long-term use. Once depleted, they cannot be readily replaced within a human lifetime.
Are electronics a renewable nonrenewable or inexhaustible?
Electronics are non renewable. They cannot be renewed.
Why should nonrenewable resources be used wisely?
Nonrenewable resources should be used wisely because once they are gone, we will never be able to have or use them again. For instance, once we use up the limited supply of fossil fuels, we won't have fossil fuels anymore to use. We should make sure we don't overuse these products and instead occasionally find alternate ways to do things without using as much of the limited products.
How does the use of nonrenewable resources compare to the use of renewable resources in terms of sustainability and environmental impact?
The use of nonrenewable resources like fossil fuels is less sustainable and has a greater environmental impact compared to renewable resources like solar or wind energy. Nonrenewable resources are finite and contribute to pollution and climate change, while renewable resources are replenishable and have lower environmental impacts.
Why is it important to use nonrenewable resources careful?
there is a limited supply
Has the use of nonrenewable resources has decreased in recent history?
yes
Why do you use nonrenewable resourcs?
because humans need these types of resources to help us survive like our heat we use oil and oil is a nonrenewable resoure
What are some Q and A about non renewable and renewable resources?
Q. What are some nonrenewable resources? A. Some nonrenewable resources are fossil fuels. Q. What are some renewable resources? A. Some renewable resources are trees, fish, oil, gold, copper and bronze.
How much longer will nonrenewable resources going to last?
It depends on how fast we use them.
Why is it important you use renewable resources not nonrenewable resources?
Using renewable resources helps to reduce the negative impact on the environment, as they can be replenished over time. Nonrenewable resources, on the other hand, are finite and their overuse can lead to resource depletion and environmental degradation. Additionally, relying on renewable resources promotes sustainability and reduces our dependency on fossil fuels.
Should there be a ban on the use of all nonrenewable resources?
there should be a banned on products that are dangerous to our health, i think it should take affect latter on down the road when we have ,mastered the new reusable resources and program we are facing now.
How do people use the resources of the environment?
People use the resources of the environment to satisfy their needs
It is better to use renewable or nonrenewable resources for energy?
Renewable because you can use it over and over again without running out, sort of like recycling paper and plastic. With nonrenewable resources, however, once you use it it's done, and it goes straight to the landfills. Not only would landfills overload if we used nonrenewable resources over renewable resources, but we would run out of that resource or material because of the fact that you can't use it over and over again
Why are nonrenewable resources used more than renewable resources?
Nonrenewable resources are often cheaper and more readily available than renewable resources, making them more attractive for immediate use. Additionally, the infrastructure and technology required to harness renewable resources can be cost-prohibitive for some industries. Finally, there may be a lack of awareness or incentive to transition to renewable resources due to a reliance on established nonrenewable energy sources.
