What is an advantage of making plant-based products, such as cotton, instead of making petroleum-based products, such as plastics?

Plants used to make products such as cotton can be grown again, so the source can be replaced. Petroleum, by contrast, is a finite resource that takes millions of years to form. The replaceable supply is an advantage of plant-based products; the other choices describe disadvantages or make an unsupported claim about cost.
