Natural Resources

The question of how to use our natural resources in a more sustainable way than in the past, lies at the core of the issue of how we combat climate change and decarbonize society. Some natural resources such as sun, wind and water are renewable while others like oil, minerals, nuclear and natural gas are not. Still, for some uses, such as commercial air travel, renewable alternatives are not yet sufficiently developed to replace fossil fuels and new technologies, such as batteries and solar panels, still rely on rare and precious minerals.
