Oil natural gas
Fossil fuels are formed from the remains of plants, animals, and other organic matter that have been buried and compressed over millions of years. The three main components that help form fossil fuels are carbon, pressure, and heat.
Fossil fuels are made of the remains of ancient plants and animals that were buried and compressed over millions of years. They primarily consist of carbon and hydrogen, along with smaller amounts of sulfur, nitrogen, and other elements. When burned, fossil fuels release energy in the form of heat, which is used for electricity generation, transportation, and other purposes.
Fossil fuels contain chemical energy.
Burning fossil fuels releases carbon into the atmosphere in the form of CO2. Yes.

Fossil fuels
When we burn fossil fuels, that fossil fuel is gone. *POOF!* And it'll take millions of years for the nonrenewable resource to form again. Therefore we need to conserve fossil fuels as much as possible.
Fossil fuels are running out because they are finite resources that are being consumed at a much faster rate than they are being replenished through natural processes. The exploration and extraction of fossil fuels have also greatly accelerated the depletion of these resources. Ultimately, the finite nature of fossil fuels, combined with their high demand for energy production, is leading to their depletion.

I don't think they are.
Ancient plant remains are buried and compacted until they form fossil fuels. There are 3 types of fossil fuels: Natural Gas Oil and Coal; the only solid fossil fuel, which is what you're looking for.
