By now you get the idea that humans are reliant on non-renewable resources (fossil fuels). Whether it happens in a few years or a few hundred years, if humans continue to use these resources as they are at

the moment that will eventually run out.

What happens when resources run out?…

Current estimates suggest:

Oil: 46 years (depleted in 2055)

Natural gas: 63 years (depleted in 2072)

Coal: 119 years (depleted in 2128)  

What would happen if fossil fuels ran out tomorrow?

Think about what you have learnt today and write a response to this.

Think about the impact it would have on peoples lives and how they may have to adapt

Explain how the scarcity of natural resources threatens the planet.
