Short answer, yes. It will affect the environment, probably pretty badly. As for how... we don't really know. Temperatures are rising, and so are carbon dioxide levels; sudden weather changes (like hurricanes) are getting more frequent and severe, and things like acid rain didn't happen once. What's not clear is how much of this is unquestionably caused by human activities, how quickly it will change in the future, and how far it will go before it stops. As fossil fuels get less accessible - there is, after all, only so much usable oil and coal in the Earth's crust - the damage caused will slow down a bit, though the climate change that's already occurred will likely take a very long time to reverse itself. This is a loaded question; lots of people, including many scientists, have differing opinions on whether climate change is actually happening. Most of the ones that don't think it is are notclimatologists. Unfortunately, there's no way to know for sure who is right yet, and if we stop using fossil fuels maybe we'll never have to find out.
