What is Renewable and non-renewable resources

Renewable and non-renewable resources Renewable resources are those resources which can be replenished or reproduced easily in a relatively short period of time. Water, plants, and animals are examples of renewable resources. Renewable resources: are replaced in time and will therefore not run out easily. For example, water in a river or in a well may dry up, but when it rains it is replenished. These resources can be used over and over again. Plants and animals are also resources that can be increased in number by reproduction. Example Mismanagement can however turn a renewable natural resource into a non-renewable one. For example, trees are a renewable resource. However, continuous deforestation may make it difficult to get back the green cover of trees. Nature has provided us with abundant resources but it depends on us to sustain them carefully. Non-renewable:  natural resources are those resources which cannot be replenished easily....
