TYPES OF NATURAL RESOURCES

There are 2 types of natural resources based on their availability:

1.Renewable resources

Renewable resources are those that are available in an endless quantity and can be used over and over again. Forest, wind, and water, for example. Despite renewable energy is frequently considered a new technology, it has long been utilised for heating, transportation, and lighting. Windmills process grain and powerboats that sail the seas. During the day, the sun has brought warmth and has assisted in the lighting of fires that have lasted well into the evening. However, during the last 500 years or so, mankind has increasingly turned to dirtier, less expensive energy sources.

2.Non Renewable resources

Non-renewable resources are restricted in quantity due to their non-renewable nature and their availability may run out in the future. Minerals, fossil fuels, and other natural resources are examples. Oil, natural gas, coal, and nuclear energy are the main examples of nonrenewable resources. Fossil fuels are made up of oil, natural gas, and coal. Read About PAN Card
