Hundreds of years at the present rate of burning it.
But it will be environmental disaster unless we improve and use the technology for capturing CO2 from burning coal.

Wrong wrong we will never run out of fossil fuels . Mother nature recycles our air with plants. CO2 is taken in by the plants and through photosynthesis holds on to the C and gives us back O2 . Now follow the C in the plants. winter comes and the leaves fall off and wash down the river to the delta where it deteriorates into gas,oil,and after a while into coal. It might change some in the future due to this land fill . It could be more difficult to find it. This is how the earth has stored all this fossil fuel energy for us.
