How do we extract your fossil fuel from the earth?
It depends on the fossil fuel:Coal:Is dug from the ground by conventional open pit or shaft minesOil:Is recovered from deep reservoirs by drilling down to them then pumping the oil out or allowing the reservoir pressure to drive it to the surfaceIS recovered from oil sands by mining and processing th bitumen heavy sandsis recovered from oil sands by in situ processes like SAGD where the oil is steamed from the deposit underground and collectedis extracted from shale formations like oil sand oilNatural Gas:Is recovered by drilling down to the reservoir and piping the gas to the surfaceIs recovered from coal mine seams by displacing the CH4 with CO2 and collecting the gasPeat:Is collected from peat bogs
How is fossil fuels man made?
A fossil is a relic of earlier times, that is found in the ground. By definition, it is not man made. People can make fuel, for example, we can grow corn, and then extract corn syrup, ferment it to make alcohol, and burn the alcohol. But that is not a fossil fuel. Petroleum, natural gas, and coal are the fossil fuels. We did not make them, they have been in the ground for a long time before we came along.
