Q. What is renewable resource?


Q. What is renewable resource?
Ans.
                 Renewable resources are ones that can be replenished naturally. Some of these resources like sunlight, air, wind, etc., are continuously available and their quantity is not noticeably affected by human consumption. Though many renewable resources do not have such a rapid recovery rate, these resources are susceptible to exhaustion by over-use. Resources from a human use perspective are classified as renewable only so long as the rate of replenishment/recovery exceeds that of the rate of consumption. Some example of renewable resources are: forest, air, water, so on.
