  1. Non-renewable resources By Chloe , Lydia, Séan .

  2. Oil • We depend on oil coal and gas but one day they will not be there for our disposal and use. Oil is made from bones and mud and other stuff and when it is mashed together it makes the liquid called oil.

  3. Coal • Another non-renewable source is coal. We use coal for our fires but soon we will have to use turf or timber of and other burnable items.

  4. Gas • Gas is yet another non-renewable energy source but is not a liquid. It is more likely called a fume. It is not very easily found but it is possible since it is available in specific stores and petrol stores. Down below is a picture of gas in a tank and normal gas.

  5. Turf • Turf is another one of our non-renewable sources and can usually be found on the road. Some people use them for their fires and some people save up a load of it for the future reference.

  6. Mineral resources • Mineral resources are one of the major kinds of non-renewable resources. Mineral resources are not uniform throughout the earth. The geological processes that formed these mineral resources occurred many millions of years ago. The distributions of these mineral resources are unevenly throughout the earth. Currently we are exploiting our mineral resources at a high rate. As we continue to use our mineral resources, they will be harder to find and more costly to develop.

  7. How they are formed • Gas and oil were formed from the remains of small sea creatures and plants that died and fell to the bottom of seas. Over many millions of years, layers of mud or other sediments built up on top of these dead animals and plants. The pressure from these layers and heat from below the Earth's crust gradually changed the once-living material into oil and natural gas.

  8. How they are formed • Over time, the layers of rocks in the Earth's crust move and may become squashed and folded. Gas and oil may move through porous rocks and may even come to the surface. In some places, pockets of oil and gas can be found, because non-porous rocks have trapped them.
