Karen is NOT correct. This is because the sun's energy is a renewable resource. This means that its use is sustainable hence it is a substance of economic value that can be replaced or replenished in the same or less amount of time as it takes to draw the supply down. Though the sun is a finite resource, it cannot be depleted within human timescale.
