What/Which are the renewable resources?

Renewable resources are natural resources that can be replenished naturally and are not depleted after (human) use.

Renewable resources are sunlight, water, wind, trees, water's kinetic energy, etc. Soil is usually not considered a renewable resource due to its very slow regeneration rate. However, naturally, soils are regenerated with the decomposition of organic matter.

The most common use of renewable resources is for generating power and heat. By using renewable products and energy, we provide sustainability, save precious non-renewable resources, reduce the greenhouse effect, and slow climate change.
