Renewable resource

A renewable resource is a resource that can be recreated indefinitely without exploiting glitches (as opposed to a nonrenewable resource). While running out of resources isn't likely to be a factor due to practically infinite (and still quite vast in theory) map generation, this is a list of resources that can be produced over and over without having to explore for more. However, running out of resources can be a bigger issue on Superflat worlds, where resources are less plentiful.

The listed fully renewable products are items which can be crafted or smelted using only renewable resources. Note that TNT and arrows are crafted from a combination of renewable and non-renewable resources (sand and flint).

Fully renewable resources
These resources do not require any nonrenewable items in order to be collected.

Renewable, but require nonrenewable resources
These resources can be made infinitely, but require one use of a nonrenewable items/resources.
