Soil is considered to be a nonrenewable natural resource primarily because **it takes so long to form**. Soil formation is a slow geological process that can take hundreds to thousands of years, and human activities such as agriculture, urban development, and deforestation can significantly accelerate soil degradation and erosion, making it difficult to regenerate.
