Fossil fuel Depletion

 Fossil fuels are a finite resource that are being rapidly depleted and are expected to run out within this century:

• Oil: Some estimates say that oil can last up to 50 years.
• Natural gas: Some estimates say that natural gas can last up to 53 years.
• Coal: Some estimates say that coal can last up to 114 years. 

The depletion of fossil fuels is a growing problem, and there are no alternatives that can replace a significant portion of current use. The burning of fossil fuels also contributes to climate change, which leads to more frequent and severe extreme weather events. 

Abiotic depletion potential is a term that refers to the depletion of non-renewable resources, such as fossil fuels, minerals, clay, and peat. It's concerned with protecting human health, welfare, and ecosystems.
