finite and renewable resources

Cards (2)

  • natural resources:
    • without human input
    • can be replaced by synthetic products
    • rubber can be extracted from sap of tree
    • manmade polymers can be made to replace rubber
    • agriculture provides conditions where natural resources can be enchanced for needs e.g fertilisers
    • Haber process allowed fertilisers to be produced from nitrogen in air
    • allowed synthetic fertilisers to be produced
    • allowed for widespread intensive farming
    • more food produced to support growing population
