False.

"Renewable" means the resource can naturally replenish, but it can still cause environmental harm if used unsustainably. Examples: overfishing or overharvesting timber depletes populations and habitats; large hydropower dams disrupt rivers and ecosystems; biofuel crops can drive deforestation and biodiversity loss; solar and wind farms require land and materials and can affect wildlife. Sustainable management is required to avoid negative consequences.
