Renewable resources are natural resources that can be replaced over time. These resources come from natural processes that continue to occur, such as sunlight, wind, and flowing water. People use renewable resources for energy, materials, and daily needs. They are available again after use.

Renewable resources are found in nature around the world. Examples include solar energy from the sun, wind energy, and water from rivers or oceans. Plants and forests can also be renewable when they are managed over time.

These resources are continuously available or replenished over time. They are used in many countries for energy production and other uses. Renewable resources are part of natural systems and human activities.
