In terms of total energy consumption in the United States, coal accounts for approximately 32 percent. The vast majority of coal is used to generate electricity.
Historical evidence indicates that coal was first used 3,000 to 4,000 years ago during the Bronze Age. in this time the people of southeastern Wales used coal for funeral pyres to burn their dead.
As of recent data, coal makes up about 20% of the fuel used for electricity generation in the United States. However, its overall contribution to total energy consumption has declined significantly due to the rise of natural gas and renewable energy sources. The exact percentage can vary year to year based on market conditions, regulations, and energy policies.
2 Trillion pounds a year in 2007 with a annual growth of 3%.
Please be more specific.
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.

Coal is still a significant source of energy globally, with about 27% of the world's primary energy coming from coal. However, the use of coal is declining in developed countries due to environmental concerns, while it is increasing in developing countries to meet their growing energy demands.
It was being developed in the 1980s. However it did not really start to be used until 1991.
Ive actually researched this and about 10 million pounds of coal is used in a year in the U.S.A and nearly a billion around the world i hope this information helps

Math began in Ancient societies over 5,000 years ago.
Around 7.9 billion tons of coal is consumed globally each year, with China being the largest consumer of coal. This consumption contributes significantly to greenhouse gas emissions and air pollution. Efforts to transition to cleaner energy sources are underway to reduce reliance on coal.
No single person is credited with having discovered coal, and no precise date of its discovery is known. The Chinese, however, are known to have used coal over 3,000 years ago.
around 202 million bags wow!!!
