Renewable resources are resources that can be reproduced quickly and effectively, while nonrenewable resources can be used up quickly and take a long time to be reproduced.

Here are some examples of renewable resources:
- Oxygen
- Water
- Solar energy
- Biomass
- Wood/paper

Now, on the other side, here are some examples of nonrenewable resources:
- Fossil fuels
- Oil
- Natural gas
- Nuclear energy
- Coal
- Earth's other minerals/metal ores

I hope this helps!
