A renewable resource is a natural
resource that is unlimited or that is
naturally replenished rather quickly,
such as sunlight or water.
FOR
Generally have a smaller
environmental impact -
once they have been set up,
they provide clean energy
AGAINST
Initial set up costs are often quite high. They
also generally don't produce as much energy
as finite sources, so the time it takes to pay
back the initial expense is quite long.
Some types rely on
external factors like the
sun and wind, so they're
less reliable.
Non-Renewable
Definition
A non-renewable energy resource is one that has a finite
(limited) supply that will eventually run out. They are
used faster than they can be replaced.
