The main points of distinction between Renewable and Non-Renewable resources are the amount at which they are used, and the rate of exhaustion, their costs, effects on the environment.

Resources can be defined as available means or stock from which the individual is benefited, while natural resources are such resources which are available naturally on Earth, these can be biotic (living things) like plants, animals (their products), birds, marine organisms, mineral fuels (oil/ petroleum, coal) or abiotic (non-living) like sunlight, water, air, minerals.

These resources are used and beneficial to us in many ways, like plants provide us medicine, fruits, flowers, vegetables, paper, rubber, etc., water is used for drinking, cleaning, whereas sunlight is used as solar power, and in plants as photosynthesis, fossil fuels like coal and petrol works as energy source for many machines.

There are many criteria on which natural resources can be classified, and one of them is on the ground of the renewability of these resources. Renewable resources can be renewed or regain once used, whereas Non-Renewable resources are just the opposite and cannot be regained once used.
