Question

If a resource is renewable, it can still get exhausted. Discuss giving two examples.

Answer 1

Yes, if a resource is renewable, it can still get exhausted if we use it at a faster rate than it is renewed. It may also get exhausted if we disturb its natural method of renewal. For example, groundwater and trees are the renewable resources which can get exhausted if we use groundwater and cut trees at a faster rate for various purposes.
