How does the use of nonrenewable resources compare to the use of renewable resources? a. The use of renewable resources is potentially more harmful to the environment than the use of nonrenewable resources. b. The use of renewable resources is more common and widespread than the use of nonrenewable resources. c. The overuse of renewable resources can lead to problems similar to those associated with the use of nonrenewable resources. d.

Both renewable and nonrenewable resources can be used to generate electricity, as a heat source, and for vehicle fuel. Not all types of renewable and nonrenewable resources can be used for every application, but at least one type of each can be used for each type of application. Renewable resources are more restricted by location than nonrenewable resources. Solar, wind, geothermal, and water energy use are dependent on location. Nonrenewable resources can be transported to locations where the resource is not readily available. The use of renewable resources typically has less environmental impact in the form of pollution than the use of nonrenewable resources.
