RESOURCES

Natural resources are useful raw materials that we get from the Earth.

They occur naturally, which means that humans cannot make natural resources. Instead, we use and modify natural resources in ways that are beneficial to us.

A renewable resource is one that can be used repeatedly and does not run out because it is naturally replaced.

A non-renewable resource (also called a finite resource) is a natural resource that cannot be readily replaced by natural means at a quick enough pace to keep up with consumption.

Renewable energy is energy that is collected from renewable resources, which are naturally replenished on a human timescale, such as sunlight, wind, rain,tides, waves, and geothermal heat.
