Renewable and Nonrenewable Resources
Resources can be either renewable or nonrenewable
A renewable resource can replenished or
regenerated.
For example, a food crop which can be consume
each season.
Groundwater drawn from wells may eventually be
replenished by rainwater.
But what does “eventually” mean? Some resources
take a very long time to regenerated – longer than
humans are willing or able to wait. For instance, it
may take hundreds of years for groundwater
supplies to be replenished.
