i don't know why are you asking me
coal - 67 years gas -50 - 60 years
coal sense it is nonrenewable energy it will basically run out in 30 or 40 years
fossil fuels will run out in: 50 years for oil 250 for nuclear and coal will run out in 80 years...
Coal resources are predicted to last at least 250 years at the current use rate
In this day and age, with the constant increase in percentage consumption rates of coal, the supplies are beginning to run out. Since we have reached peak fossil fuels in only about a century, there's not many years left for fossil fuels. Based on these facts, it is safe to say that coal, the longest lasting fossil fuel, will run out in around 250 years, or less depending on growth rate of percentage consumption.
No, coal is not environmentally friendly. Gathering it requires mining with machinery and burning coal produces many pollutants. Eventually, coal will run out. Solar energy is a good alternative since it is free and will not run out.
Yes, coal is considered a limited resource because it is the decay of primeval forests. Of course there are not many "leftovers" of these forests since we have use coal for around hundreds of years. Coal will eventually run out as we use up more and more coal found in the small amount of the primeval forests we have today.
electricity can never run out only the energy used to generate it
The problem with coal is that is a nonrenewable resource which means that it cannot be supplied again when we run out which is predicted to be about 200 years from now. Coal also lets out CO2 into the air which only plants can breathe in.
Fossil fuels. This includes petroleum and coal.
Yes, coal is a non-renewable resource.
