Fossil fuels contain chemical energy.
Burning fossil fuels releases carbon into the atmosphere in the form of CO2. Yes.
Fossil fuels
Because you are releasing MORE Carbon dioxide (CO2) into the atmosphere, and thereby disturbing the equilibrium of CO2 and oxygen in the atmosphere. CO2 creates Global Warming. , by the 'Greenhouse' effect of reflecting released heat energy back to Earth.

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.
All fossil fuels are being used faster than they are replaced. Fossil fuels by definition take millions of years to form.
Fossil fuels took millions of years to form. The time scale is such that it is not possible to renew fossil fuels on a human time scale. It is for that reason that they are called non-renewable.
