Solution

Yes,
We need to worry about coal reserves. because formation of coal takes millions of years. Our coal reserves are enough for present generation only. we have consumed an incredible amount of coal with in short period.

If this is continued we will soon run out of energy. These limited coal reserves cannot meet the needs of growing population. Moreover burning of coal cause pollution of air. So we should use coal carefully.
