Answer:
Coal: 7.4 billion tonnes
Explanation:
The World Coal Association estimates that there are more than one trillion tonnes of coal reserves worldwide, enough to last 150 years at current rates of production, so it is unsurprising to see coal ranked as the most-mined mineral in the world.
While China has consistently led the world in production – the country was responsible for 3.3 billion tonnes in 2016 – this was down 16% from the 3.9 billion tonnes produced in 2012. Chinese coal output slumped below the 3.4 billion tonne-threshold predicted in 2016 and the trend may continue, as renewable energy sources become more widespread.
The Chinese decline has mirrored a trend in worldwide coal production, which fell to 7.4 billion tonnes in 2016 from 8.2 billion in 2012. While coal production has increased in Australia and Russia in the last five years, both South Africa and the US have seen sharp declines in production of anthracite and bituminous coal. American coal production in particular has fallen from over 900 million tonnes in 2012 to 782 million in 2016, the lowest figure since 1979.
Hope that Helped!
It’s obviously round first piece of evidence is the countless accounts of people in space stating it is round, and you’ve got to think about it. Why would they lie and create this international conspiracy? What would be the point in saying the earth is round when it’s flat? Furthermore, second piece of evidence is that you can see the curvature of the earth from an airplane, if you go into the cockpit of a commercial airplane when at a cruising altitude of around 40,000feet you can see the curvature! So it wouldn’t just be people who have been In space lying it would be countless pilots, videos, photographic evidence falsified and for what?!
Overall, the earth is round.
