Earth's natural resrouces are reduced when we consume non renewable resources such as oil, metal ores, water from fresh ground water tables, etc. Also, even renewable resources may not replenish themselves quickly enough in order to not reduce over time. For instance, deforrestation is when trees are cut down. Trees grow back. However, if the rate at which they are cut down is faster than it takes to grow, then the resource is reduced.
