Essentially, a nonrenewable resource is something that can’t be replaced naturally to keep up with human consumption. Because we can’t readily make more oil or coal to use now, nonrenewable resources can also be thought of as finite resources.

Right now, these finite resources are the world’s primary source of power. Thanks to their high energy content, relative affordability, and the current systems in place, our world still runs largely on nonrenewable energy sources.

But this can’t remain true forever. Fossil fuels have adverse environmental effects like climate change—and they’re of a limited quantity. As fossil fuels become more scarce, they’ll become more expensive and less accessible. That’s why most people have been looking for technology that grants people to use energy without any limits; thus finding something called renewable resources

Advantage:

• Most renewable sources are clean because they don’t produce any pollution. 

• They are readily available compared to other power sources such as fossil fuels.

• Renewable recourses lowers reliance on foreign energy sources

Disadvantage:

• expensive storage costs

• take a lot of space to install

• the electricity generation capacity is still not large enough

Source of Material: 

• solar power

• wind

• falling of water

• geothermal

• biomass

• waves

• ocean current
