Another renewable resource is water, (1)water is the signature of our planet. We are the blue planet. The planet of life.The latest discoveries in astrophysics point to water not being a natural terrestrial product but imported from the edges of our solar system.
Life on Earth evolved from water, a marriage of oxygen and hydrogen to form the most recognized chemical code, H2O. 70% of the Earth’s surface is covered in water. 80% of fruit and vegetables are made of water. Our bodies are 50 - 70% water and we lose three bucket loads every week or about 2.5 liters on average escapes our body every day. 65% is removed in urine & feces, followed by 20% secreted through our skin and 15% through our lungs.(1)
Two non renewable resources are fossil fuels and nuclear power. (2)As we see daily proof, fossil fuels make the world go round. For the past century, and especially the past 50 years, they've created vast fortunes for individuals and entire nations, powered the global economy, and provoked geopolitical tensions and sometimes wars. No news there. But did you know that current events on this petroleum-addled planet are closely linked to weird and wonderful plants that lived hundreds of millions of years ago. Many people think
