Why is it difficult to say exactly when the world will run out of fossil fuels?
To know when the earth's fossil fuels will be completely gone, it is necessary to know: 1. Supply: The existing and future quantities (yet to be discovered) of fossil fuels and 2. Consumption: The rate at which the world will consume these fuels. There is disagreement among organizations on the future supply and consumption. Many predict that as the supply becomes more expensive, we will use energy conservation to reduce the demand. However, as the standard of living improves in many countries, in particular India and China, the demand for fossil fuels has increased. There is disagreement as to the role of alternative fuels will have in the future. Some predict that the demand for fossil fuels will decline as alternative fuels offer a more economical option. The related link is excellent in describing the predicted peak then decline of fossil fuels. You may find many links on the internet. Also, several recent books have been written about the period of "peak" and "decline" periods in fossil fuel supply.
When will fossil fuel reserves run out?
It is difficult to predict exactly when fossil fuel reserves will run out as it depends on factors such as consumption rates, technological advancements, and new discoveries. However, some estimates suggest that certain fossil fuel reserves, like oil and natural gas, may deplete within the next century if current consumption rates continue.
How is the US' consumption of fossil fuels affecting the supply and demand of these products?
How is the United States' consumption of fossil fuels affecting the supply and demand of these products?
What is the timescale of fossil fuels running out?

What countries use the most fossil fuels?
The US by far consumes the most. Common fossil fuels are natural gas, oil and coal. I've included a link on oil consumption showing the major consumers. China is number 2 in oil consumption but its per capita consumption is much less.
How has burning fossil fuels most caused a decline to the quality of air the people breathe?
Because fossil fuels are made of plants so theere clean
Why is there likely to be fossil fuel crisis sometimes?
because their resources are limited and fossil fuel consumption rate is higher than their possible production rate.
How long does a fossil fuel last?
Fossil fuels are nonrenewable resources, meaning they are finite in supply and will eventually run out. The length of time it takes for fossil fuels to be depleted depends on various factors such as consumption rates, reserves, and advancement of alternative energy sources. It is estimated that at current consumption rates, fossil fuels could last for several decades to several hundred years.
Why is America one of the leaders in fossil fuel consumption?

Are motor vehicles the largest consumers of fossil fuels?
Motor vehicles are one of the largest consumers of fossil fuels, but they are not the largest overall. Other sectors such as power generation and industrial processes also contribute significantly to fossil fuel consumption.
