Renewable resources

A renewable resource is a natural resource which will replenish to replace the portion depleted by usage and consumption, either through natural reproduction or other recurring processes in a infinite amount of time in a human time scale. They release less amount of pollutants in the atmosphere and are user friendly. Eg- Air, Sunlight

Non-renewable resources

A non-renewable resource is a natural resource that cannot be readily replaced by natural means at a quick enough pace to keep up with consumption. Their worst side effect is that they release a number of toxic pollutants in the atmosphere and the people who works with direct contact to them fo a period of time may develop several lung diseases. An example is carbon-based fossil fuel. The original organic matter, with the aid of heat and pressure, becomes a fuel such as oils or natural gas.
