In order to move the car forward petrol is burned. Petrol comes from underground and is from rottting trees decomposing over millions of years. Petrol has many carbon atoms in it that, when the petrol burns, react with oxygen to make CO2 (Carbon Dioxide). The 2 reasons petrol is bad is 1. it takes millions of years to make so it isn't renuable and second when it burns it produces carbon dioxide which causes global warming.
