Question
1 multiple choice 1 point three images with resource lists: left - sunlight, wind energy, wave energy; middle - fresh water, forest products, agricultural crops; right - crude oil, natural gas, coal what term is used to describe the resources listed on the right side of the diagram? nonrenewable renewable sustainable ecological footprints
The resources on the right (crude oil, natural gas, coal) are nonrenewable because they are finite and take millions of years to form, unlike renewable resources (e.g., sunlight, wind) that replenish quickly. Renewable resources are replenishable, sustainable relates to long - term use without depletion, and ecological footprints measure resource consumption. So the correct term is nonrenewable.
