Has fossil fuel been around million years ago?
Fossil fuels are formed by plant and animal matter that decays differently under immense pressure and large periods of time deep in the earth's crust. As long as there have been plants and animals (subtracting the perhaps million years it takes to actually form the fuel), there have been fossil fuels. In this way, fossil fuels ARE renewable, though it takes a very, very long time. As long as things continue to die and be buried and potentially, to fossilize or decay, there will be fossil fuels, though there is an argument about how long sufficient quantities of these fuels will last.
