Solution

The major fossil fuels are coal and petroleum. There is no definite time-limit by which the fossil fuels are expected to finish. It has been a debatable topic and many people have put forward their own time-limits based on the consumption rate, which are not uniform everywhere. However, a rough figure of another 200 years is often given as the expected time for which the fossil fuels are expected to last. In other words, in the next two hundred years, the fossil fuels may vanish from earth.
