We are also doing the same with other vital resources not usually thought of as being nonrenewable such as fertile soils, groundwater and the millions of other species that share the earth with us.

本句中not部分是并列句还是并列表语呢？thought在这里应该是名词吧？

回答如下：

not usually thought of as...相当于定语从句被动语态省略形式

(which/that are )not thought of as being nonrenwable ...

thought 不是名词，是过去分词，与A be thought of as B 构成一个固定搭配。

回答如下：

参考译文：我们对待其它通常不被看作是不可再生的重要资源也是如此，例如肥沃的土地，地下水和数百万与我们共同居住的在地球上的物种.

not usually thought of as being nonrenewable 过去分词短语做后置定语，修饰前面名词resources

such as  是用来列举事例加以说明（资源的内容）

(1)do the same with sth 对某事情做同样的处理/对待

Do the same with the other curve.  

对其它曲线也同样处理.

It could do the same with drugs.  

它在药品销售上同样也能做到这一点.

(2) think of A as  B 把 A看作为B

改为被动语态为下面句子

A be thought of as B    A 被看作为B

We usually think of a victim of mugging as being someone elderly.  

我们通常以为被拦路抢劫的受害者是老年人。

A victim of mugging is thought of as being someone elderl.
