Why is limestone a non renewable resource?
Yes it is because it takes a long time to form (Redirected from Renewable resources)Jump to: navigation, searchA natural resource qualifies as a renewable resource if it is replenished by natural processes at a rate comparable or faster than its rate of consumption by humans. Solar radiation, tides, winds and hydroelectricity are perpetual resourcesthat are in no danger of long-term availability. Renewable resources may also mean commodities such as wood, paper, and leather, if harvesting is performed in a sustainable manner. Limestone is considered to be a nonrenewable resource because the amount of time taken to form the limestone used is much longer than the rate at which humans use it. This is essentially the same concept as with oil- that is, oil can in fact be replenished, but the amount of time it takes is unreasonable is comparison to usage.

Is limestone a renewable resource?
It IS renewable in the sense that volcanic forces are always creating new rocks and stones deep within the earth.

It simply takes too long for stone to form to be considered a renewable natural resource.

Is concrete is renewable non renewable?
I don't think that concrete itself is a nonrenewable resource, but some materials in it might be. For example, the limestone in the cement (the material that makes the concrete solid) could be considered a nonrenewable resource because it takes so long for it to regenerate.
