Verified step by step guidance1
Identify the definition of renewable resources: Renewable resources are those that can be replenished naturally over short periods of time and are sustainable in the long term.
List the options provided: Hydroelectric power, Wind energy, Natural gas, and Solar energy.
Evaluate each option: Hydroelectric power, Wind energy, and Solar energy are all renewable because they rely on natural processes that are continuously replenished.
Consider the nature of natural gas: Natural gas is a fossil fuel, which means it is formed from the remains of ancient organisms and is not replenished on a human timescale.
Conclude that natural gas is not a renewable resource, as it does not meet the criteria of being naturally replenished over short periods of time.
