Worldwide, about 6 billion tons a year.
Coal consumption varies by region and industry. In 2019, global coal consumption was around 7.7 billion metric tons. China is the largest consumer of coal, followed by India and the United States. Because coal is a nonrenewable resource and a major source of greenhouse gas emissions, efforts are being made to reduce its use in favor of cleaner energy sources.
Yes, coal is a finite resource that is nonrenewable. This means that there is a limited supply of coal in the earth's crust, and it is being depleted as it is extracted and used.
No, coal is not an infinite resource. It is a finite resource that takes millions of years to form and is being depleted at a much faster rate than it is being replenished. This makes coal a non-renewable energy source.
Coal is primarily used for electricity generation and industrial processes such as steel production and cement manufacturing. It is also used in some household heating systems and in the production of chemicals and pharmaceuticals.
No, coal is not an inexhaustible resource. It is a finite fossil fuel that is non-renewable, meaning it takes millions of years to form and currently is being consumed much faster than it is being produced. Once coal reserves are depleted, they cannot be replenished in our lifetime.
coal in Zimbabwe is used for many reasons. Some of them being heat (although that is not needed much in Zimbabwe) and most of it for electrical power in Zimbabwe.
coal because it isnt being used as much as it was in the past.
Being used (burned) without proper emission control.
no not much
Coal is a fossil fuel,that is being used to produce electricity and heat.

Really and truly, coal and oil aren't being created fast enough for human use. Coal is most likely not to be used that often; since not everyone is burning coal, we have plenty of it. Oil is a different story. Since we use oil, sometimes in our daily lives, it has to be produced more often the coal, because me use it so much!
by being burnt such as coal

well it depends, in most coal yards they have feeders that measure how much coal is put into the cars.
