oil is scheduled to run out in 100 years‚ and coal in about 1000 years‚ which is why finding efficient forms of renewable energy is crucial to maintaining the current levels of fossil fuels. Alternatives to coal and oil include resources such as: wind‚ solar‚ hydro‚ wood‚ and biomass. All of these energies are renewable and a great replacement for fossil fuels. Around the world‚ these types of energies are being used‚ but are not as widespread or efficient enough for us to depend on to slow down
