A resource that is replaced by nature more quickly than it is consumed
Real World Example
Imagine trying to keep your smartphone charged throughout the day while constantly using it for calls, texts, and apps. This is similar to how a renewable resource works because just as you might have a portable charger that replenishes your phone’s battery faster than you drain it, nature replenishes renewable resources like sunlight, wind, or water at a rate faster than we use them. In this analogy, the portable charger represents the natural processes that continuously supply energy, while your phone's usage symbolizes our consumption, highlighting how renewable resources are naturally replenished to meet ongoing demand.
