Except that we haven't been here even a whole blink of time compared to the ancient biomass it took to create all that fossil fuel in the first place.
Once it's gone, it's gone. Barring maaaaaajor super disaster and literal eons of time, this planet won't ever see fossil fuels again.
All that humans will leave behind is a very thin layer of microplastics, it won't even match the planet wide layer of iridium laid down by the impact that contribited to wiping out "the dinosaurs" (and damn near everything else lol )
All that's ever going to be left of the human race are the two extra-solar voyager spacecraft...... The universe won't ever have noticed us at all.
