We have emitted more than the original amount of CO2 in a bit more than a century. Since it would take tens or hundreds of thousands of years for it to be all absorbed by the ground, yes, I think whoever is here in 1.4G years will do just fine.

Of course, there are other disasters to come after that one.

1.4 Gy is enough time to make more fossil fuel, as it is a renewable resource on that time scale.
