Renewable And Non Renewable Resources Questions
Biomass refers to organic matter, such as plants, crops, and agricultural waste, that can be used as a source of energy. It is considered a renewable resource because it can be replenished within a relatively short period of time through natural processes, such as photosynthesis. As long as new plants and crops are grown to replace the ones used for biomass energy production, the resource can be sustained indefinitely. Additionally, biomass releases carbon dioxide when burned, but this is offset by the fact that the plants used for biomass absorb carbon dioxide during their growth, making it a carbon-neutral energy source.
