If fossil fuels are still being formed why are they said to be nonrenewable?

Fossil fuels, like coal, oil, and natural gas, are considered nonrenewable because they take millions of years to form. While some fossil fuel deposits are still being formed today, human consumption far surpasses the natural replenishment rate. This leads to the depletion of these resources faster than they can be renewed, making them nonrenewable on practical timescales.


Is fossil fuel still being made in the Earth today?

Fossil fuels are not currently being made in significant quantities on Earth. They are formed over millions of years from the remains of plants and animals that were buried and subjected to heat and pressure. This process is very slow and does not occur at a rate that can keep up with current human consumption.

What happened to the normal process of decay which resulted in fossil fuels being formed?

That process still occurs today, the problem is that it has, and still does take an extremely long time. Plants were decaying for millions of years before humans discovered that fossil fuels were a good energy source, now it's only been about 150 years since then (the Industrial Revolution in Europe, when fossil fuels began to be used in large amounts), so very little fuel has been produced. It would take millions upon millions of years to replace the fossils fuels that we have consumed.
