Brief Explanations
- Renewable energy sources are those that can be replenished naturally over time. Energy from water springs inside the Earth (geothermal, which uses Earth's internal heat, and water springs can relate to geothermal or hydro if it's a spring - but here the spring is from inside Earth, likely geothermal - and energy from burning plant waste (biomass, as plants can be regrown) are renewable.
- Nonrenewable energy sources are finite and take millions of years to form. Natural gas and coal are fossil fuels, formed from ancient organic matter, so they are nonrenewable.
