Question

What is Timing of depletion? And what is the difference between finite time of depletion vs infinite time

Answer 1

Timing of depletion refers to the time it takes for a resource to get depleted. That is, after how long or time the resource will get depleted.

A finite time of depletion refers to a set number of years or time period after which the resource will get depleted. Say 100 years or 1000 years. E.g. fossil fuels

An infinite time of depletion is when the resource cannot get depleted. It remains present all throughout the lives or infinite time period. Eg sun, air etc.
