Answers
Explanation:
Coal, Petroleum and other minerals are non-renewable resources, they get exhausted when put to use. It takes millions of years to form these minerals. In todays world we cannot imagine human life without coal and petroleum products. coal and petroleum products are used in household sector, industrial sector, electrical sector, transportation sector, etc. making our life easy. But the usage of these products are increasing very fast day-by-day and if we are not serious very soon these minerals will be exhausted.
Human life will be effected very badly if coal and petroleum products get exhausted completely. If such a situation occurs we won't get proper electricity, transportation will be a great problem, all household items will become very costly, Food items will not be available on time, in short the survival of human life will be very difficult.
