Five nonrenewable resources that energy can replace include coal, oil, natural gas, uranium (used in nuclear power), and fossil fuels. These resources are finite and contribute to environmental degradation, making renewable energy sources like solar, wind, and hydropower more sustainable alternatives. Transitioning to these renewable options helps reduce carbon emissions and dependence on depleting resources.

Is solar a nonrenewable resource or a renewable one?

Solar energy is a renewable energy since you can always get energy from the sun and it will never run out, hence the word renewable. Although the sun will explode in around 4 or 5 billion years, solar energy is virtually renewable and will be available for a long, long time.

What Type of energy resources?

There are ten major energy resources in use by humans today. These ten sources in order from most used to least as listed on the NEED (National Energy Education Development project) website: Petroleum - 37% Natural gas - 23.5% Coal - 22.6% Uranium - 8.5% Biomass - 3.5% Hydropower - 2.5% Propane - 1% Wind - .5% Geothermal - .4% Solar - <.1%


Why alternative energy resources are not widely used?

In some cases, or even in most, alternative energy is expensive to produce. Energy such as coal or gas, which can be found in the earth are far less expensive to obtain. Solar heating panels can heat your whole home but few can afford the $5-6000 it would cost.


Why is nonrenewable energy better than renewable energy?

Advantages to renewable: Non renewable energy is worst than renewable for a number of reasons, but some of the main ones being that: 1.) As renewable energy does not use a limited fuel, it is resistant to rising prices, so as the price of oil goes up, the price of renewable energy wont. 2.) Renewable energy will last until the sun dies, about 5 billion years, so even when oil, coal and natural gas have ran out, the sunlight, tides (controlled by the moon not sun though) and wind will still be available to harness energy from. 3.) Without a limited fuel, renewable energy is cheaper, just build the generater (wind turbine or hydroelectric dam etc.) and watch the money keep rolling in without much going out apart from the odd repair now and again. 4.) Without fuel, renewable energy is good for the environment and does not contribute to acid rain or global warming apart from when building the generater to start with. 5.) Renewable energy does not create any waste products 6.) Without needing fuel, renewable energy can be used in the most isolated of places without any fuel reserves and due to many of the other advantages, it is also good at helping provide energy to developing countries. Independance: renewable energy allows houses, villages or even countries become independent as they will not need to buy oil and fuel from other countries (whether this helps or metaphorically destroys the international economy probably depends on the situation however it certainly saves it's possessor money from having to buy fuel or electric from elsewhere)


How can you conserve nonrenewable sources of energy?

One way to conserve nonrenewable resources is to not use them. If they are nonrenewable then they can never come back. The smartest thing would be to find new better resources that never run out.
