natural resources materials or substances occurring in nature which can…

- - - - replenished naturally in the course of time.
    - - energy resource
        
        solar power
        
        solar panels
        
        wind power
        
        wind turbines
        
        hydroelectric
        
        dams, turbines, hydraulic dams
        
        kinetic energy from hydraulic action to generate electricity
        
        geothermal energy
        
        geothermal power plants --> turbines
        
        biomass
        
        wood agriculture
        
        biofuels
      - water
        
        the amount of water on earth remains the same throughout history
        
        how we treat the water that matters
      - air
      - wood
    - - The use of these resources corresponds with the principles of sustainability, because the rate at which we are consuming them does not affect their availability in the long term.
    - - higher costs as compared to fossil fuel sources of energy.
        
        prevented higher penetration of clean energy
        
        rate of consumption may be higher than rate of replenishment
  - - - available to us in limited quantities, or those that are renewed so slowly that the rate at which they are consumed is too fast.
    - - energy resource
        
        nuclear energy (uranium)
        
        fossil fuels
        
        used to generate electricity
        
        petroleum
        
        oil
        
        ok technically apparently oil isn't a Fossil Fuel but i dunno if that's True or not because i didn't fully research but yeahhhhhhhhhhh
        
        natural gas
        
        coal
      - earth minerals
        
        diamond
      - metal ores
        
        gold
        
        uranium
    - - abundant and affordable
    - - once sources of non-renewable energy are gone, they cannot be replaced (within a human lifetime)
        
        stocks may be depleted before they can replenish naturally
