      Hey,

      We have enough fuels from non-renewable sources to last for another 70 years or so. Coal will be the last fuel to run out.
      More non-renewable fuels are getting found all the time, but finding more only pushed the end back a little bit and we definitely will still run out. In addition we also need more fuel all the time as the number of people on Earth increases.

      This is why it is important to switch to renewables like solar, wind and water power, and many countries are already getting most of their power this way (Germany now gets 88% of its energy from renewable sources).
