What Are Fossil Fuels? | National Geographic

True science fact: America is on top of an ancient reef making natural gas. Enough of that gas to top nuclear and renewables as the America's top energy source.

There is no such thing as "renewables". The materials for wind and solar are mined. Just like fossil fuels they are not renewable.

🎉

your all being lied to. Earth is not the only world in this solar system with vast deposits of oil. Even NASA's own website will tell you that. It's not a fossil fuel. It doesn't come from bio matter. Was Pluto once teaming with life? I don't think anyone is making that case yet it has oil and other hydrocarbons.

You have it all Wrong completely worthless information and should not be spreading lies

Stop pls

omg 😱😱😱

I would like to make a comment regarding the word 'Fossil' as applied to
Fossil Fuel. The scientists, these enlightened ones, tell us that crude
oil is transformed plant matter from the age of dinosaurs. And that
this vegetation somehow ended up underground at levels that have been as
deep as 35,000'. Then after centuries it transformed into what we call
crude oil. I find this hard to believe. How would plant material which
normally decomposes on the surface become undergound at astounding
depths and then change itself into huge quantities of oil? This material
has nothing to do with fossils or dinosaurs and was most likely formed
when the planet was created through a process unknown to us.

theres out of fuel!!!!!!

I can't believe they're still pushing this nonsense that some dead dinosaurs are producing all the world's oil.

Dinosaurs are more dangerous dead than alive. Who knew!

Who else here cause of teacher

This is not true, fossil fuels was coined by wealthy businessmen such as Rockefeller to make it seem like a non renewable item. Scientists admit they are not sure what makes it and it is drilled for way below where even the oldest fossils have been found. It's bologna to increase prices and then eventually drive other technologies. Wake up America!

Did Rembrandts book say if can u eat fossils

The world runs on fossil fuels, it's dumb, but it's just how it is. What happens when/if they run out?. There's only so much of it.

POV: your watching this from bisr

I like how it ended with the message. No solution. No ending.

Yes! This explains it perfectly to beginners who need to learn more on the topic!

you make cool videos of.plz make some airplane videos about the flying V

If you are here for online school press…
👇🏻

Yet this video failed to address that a lot of what we depend is made of fossil fuels, such as steel and plastic.

this comments section is toxic

ayo mrs. buckley’s class sound off

did massive dinosaur fossils become oil??

Fossil fuels are there to help us develop a technology to harness the worlds renewable energies. Its the only way forward.

Nice

You guys... Our cars run on dinosaurs. WOAH.

cool

fossil fuels

leafs

i like hockey

And that's why their are oil / gas deposits on the moons of Saturn, cause Dino was there!! HAHAJHA

in 5009 i will make fossil human fuells

Are there any fresh fossil fuels being formed, or are the conditions wrong now in modern times?
Everyone, please watch my tiny nature videos. There is no talking in them. Shhh!

What about free energy huh?

fossil fuel just some crap which you dug up bonus you can burn it, other ways to make power but tptb like burning things, you know who else likes burning things? SATAN.

Wow. This short video doesn't even scratch the surface of this topic.

Dino powered engines

Gas that comes out of our butt holes influences world climate more than it.

Actually agriculture contributes a lot of greenhouse gases also but nobody ever mentions that because they don't want to change that which is sad
