Talk:Natural resource

PLEASE use the above "new section" tab to enter a new comment. That provides you a form in which to first enter a Subject and then enter the new comment. Please sign the comment with four tildes like this ~~~~. That automatically signs it with your user name, the date and the time. The form automatically provides subject headings like those below and enters them in the table of contents which will appear below after four comments are posted.

The first responder to someone's new comment should enter the response just beneath the new comment (instead of using the above + tab) and indent the response by starting with a colon like this :. Any second responder, indent further by starting with two colons like this :: and any third responder, start with three colons like this ::: and so forth. If we don't follow these practices, the result is jumbled mess.

[edit] Aren't ALL resources renewable?

Trees, Coal, Oil, etc. Ten years, thousand years, million years... it's all relative.

The appropriate page for this would be renewable resource, but no, many are not (e.g. biodiversity to name one) and something that takes millions of years is hardly something that can be called renewable in any meaningful way. But yes, there is a continuum based on rate of regeneration. Richard001 00:36, 7 September 2007 (UTC)

I think about natural resources all the time. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 131.109.46.26 (talk) 16:13, 1 February 2008 (UTC)
