उत्तर

A renewable resource can become non-renewable when it is used faster than nature can restore it. Examples include overfishing, deforestation, and excessive extraction of groundwater. For instance, if groundwater is taken out faster than it is naturally replenished, it may eventually become depleted.

To prevent this, we should follow sustainable practices, such as conserving water, reducing wastage, and using resources efficiently. Restoration methods like reforestation and water conservation can also help maintain the natural balance. Responsible use of resources in agriculture and other activities can ensure their availability for future generations.
