Renewable resources are those that are replenished naturally over relatively short periods of time. It includes solar energy, tidal energy, geothermal energy, biomass, etc. Thus the correct answer is option A.

Solar radiation, wind power, and sea tides are all renewable (inexhaustible) and considered non-conventional sources of energy.

Natural resources occur naturally within environments, that exist relatively undistributed by humanity, in a natural form. A natural resource is often characterized by amounts of biodiversity and geodiversity existent in various ecosystems. Natural resources are derived from the environment. Biotic resources are obtained from the biosphere (living and organic material), such as forests and animals, and the materials, that can be obtained from them. Forests and wildlife are both renewable in the short term but non renewable once a point has been reached or to a point. Forests can be managed to some degree sustainable forestry cuts older trees, while planting new one to replace them, this works in some types of environments better than others.

Water harvesting is the process of collecting, storing, and reusing rainwater or surface runoff. It is a sustainable practice used to manage water resources efficiently.

Answer is option D i.e. "1978"
Tawa Dam is a reservoir on the Tawa River in central India. It is located in Itarsi of Hoshangabad District of Madhya Pradesh state. In 1958, construction began on Tawa Dam, which was completed in 1978.

The Lake Homs Dam in Syria is widely considered the oldest dam still in use, dating back to the Bronze Age. While other ancient dams exist, this is historically recognized as the oldest.

The Three Gorges Dam in China is the world's largest power station in terms of installed capacity. It is a massive hydroelectric gravity dam on the Yangtze River.

The Tehri Dam is built on the Bhagirathi River, which is a major tributary of the Ganga. It is one of the tallest dams in India.

Roof top water harvesting systems can be designed to recharge groundwater through various methods, including borewells and recharge pits. All these options are valid techniques for utilizing collected rainwater.

Both surface runoff harvesting and roof top rainwater harvesting are standard methods for collecting water. Organic farming is a method of agriculture, not a water harvesting technique.
