Answer:

D. Cost of pollution from burning coal

Explanation:

Energy resources can be classified into two categories: renewable and non-renewable.

Renewable resources are those that can be replenished within a short time. This includes, wind energy, solar, hydrothermal etc

Non-renewable resources in contrast, are finite and are in limited supply. This includes, fossil fuels like coal, oil and natural gas as well as nuclear energy.
