A resource that can be replaced in a human lifetime

• Renewable

• Limited Resource

• Nonrenewable Resource

• Natural Resource

People try to conserve some resources, like fossil fuels, because they are not replaceable. Why can’t these resources be replaced?

• They must be transported long distances.Processes that make them take a long time.No one can afford to buy more of them.It is impossible to extract more from the earth.

• It is impossible to extract more from the earth.

• No one can afford to buy more of them.

• Processes that make them take a long time.

In all of the following examples, the quantity of the resource being used by humans is affected EXCEPT –

• petroleum taken from the ground and burned for fuel.

• fresh water used for agriculture, recreation, and tourism.

• wind power used to provide energy for homes and businesses.

• metal ores mined and used to create building materials.
