What is another word for non-renewable resources?
Pronunciation: [nˈɒnɹɪnjˈuːəbə͡l ɹɪzˈɔːsɪz] (IPA) 
Non-renewable resources are finite resources that cannot be replaced or regenerated once they are depleted. Some common synonyms for non-renewable resources include fossil fuels, such as coal, oil, and natural gas, as well as minerals like gold, silver, and copper. Other terms that may be used to describe non-renewable resources include non-sustainable resources, exhaustible resources, and finite resources. These resources play an important role in our daily lives, powering our homes and businesses and providing the materials we need for construction and other industrial processes. However, as their finite nature becomes increasingly apparent, efforts are being made to transition to renewable sources of energy and reduce our reliance on non-renewable resources.
