Step-by-step explanation:

defination

A non-renewable resource is a natural resource that cannot be readily replaced by natural means at a quick enough pace to keep up with consumption.

sources

Non-renewable energy comes from sources that will eventually run out, such as oil and coal.

advantages

The main advantages of non-renewable energies is that they are abundant and affordable. For example, oil and diesel are still good choices for powering vehicles. Non-renewable energy is cost effective and easier to product and use

coal oil and natural gas and nuclear fuels

It is a finite resource. Fossil fuels such as oil, natural gas, and coal are examples of nonrenewable resources. ... Renewable resources are the opposite: Their supply replenishes naturally or can be sustained. The sunlight used in solar power and the wind used to power wind turbines replenish themselves
