There is a ****ing hell of a lot of coal and oil left. It is just deep. 99% (at least) of the carbon in the world is locked up as coal, oil, and gas. The reason? In the Carboniferous, there were land plants, but no land animals, so all the extra plant matter got stored, as it was not eaten. This created our coal and oil fields. True, fossilisation is not common normally, but in this case, a lot of it happened. By the time we use up our fossil fuels, there will not be a habitable Earth.
