Here are some additional renewable and nonrenewable resources that could be included:
Renewable resources:
- Hydropower
- Wind power
- Geothermal energy
- Biomass energy (from organic matter like plants and animal waste)
Nonrenewable resources:
- Coal
- Natural gas
- Uranium (for nuclear power)
- Petroleum
- Metal ore minerals like iron, aluminum, copper
The key distinction is that renewable resources can be replenished naturally in a short time period, while nonrenewable resources take millions of years to form and are depleted much faster than their formation rate when extracted for human use.
