Question
fossil fuels like gasoline, coal, and natural gas are considered finite. what does this mean? they last forever. they are nonrenewable.
Brief Explanations
Finite resources are those that exist in a limited quantity on Earth and cannot be replenished at a rate that matches their consumption. Nonrenewable resources fit this definition, as they form over extremely long geological timescales and will be depleted with use. In contrast, resources that "last forever" would be infinite, not finite.
