What does the fact that there is oil and coal deep below the ice in the Antarctic tell you about the earth in the past?
Petroleum and Coal are formed from fossilized trees in swampland, so it means that at some point in history, likely 300 million years ago since most of the world's coal is from that time period, Antarctica had a large swamp and forest. This supports plate tectonics, which indicate that prior to 50 million years ago, Antarctica was usually close to or on the Equator.
How oil and coal created in antarctica below the ice?
The Antarctic was not always at the south pole. At some stage, (possibly when all land was one mass named: Pangea) it was tropical and the vegetation (tree ferns, etc) needed to eventually form coal and oil was present. Tectonic plates movement across the earth's mantle, transported the Antarctic to its present day position at the south pole.

What is the reason for change in the climate of antarctic?
Climate in the Antarctic and around the whole world is changing because of global warming, which is caused by deforestation and the burning of fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas) in industry, transport and the generation of electricity, which releases carbon dioxide.
Is cow poo a fossil fuel?
No. Fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas) are hydrocarbons from deep under the ground.
Are the fossil fuels coal and oil found in Antarctica useable?
Yes, coal deposits have been found in Antarctica, but extracting and using them is currently not economically viable due to the extreme conditions in the region. As for oil, there have been limited exploration efforts in Antarctica, but the environmental sensitivity and protection regulations in place make commercial oil extraction unlikely.
