The USA has about 80 years of natural gas left including estimates of all unproved reserves at the current rate of consumption of about 35 tcf/ year. Which will continue to go up before it starts going back down.

Coal is being used less and is plentiful if we have the energy to move mountains to get it. 200 years.
