Why do you think the supply of Fossil Fuels is limited?

Yes. It takes the earth millions of years to make a barrel of oil. Fossil fuels are non-renewable fuel sources. The "available supply" may increase due to new discoveries but the earth's total resources or supply of these fuels is finite, and diminishes as we use them. Fossil Fuels are made when something gets covered and so much pressure is on that thing it turns into oil. The UAE is a place with a lot of Fossil Fuels because the sand covers any animal of thing that dies there.


Why is the supply of fossil fuels limited?

The supply of fossil fuels is limited because they are formed from organic materials like plants and animals that take millions of years to break down and transform into coal, oil, and gas. Since fossil fuels are being extracted and burned at a much faster rate than they are being replenished, their reserves are depleting rapidly.


What resources are limited in supply.?

Nonrenewable resources those in limited supply. A prime example of this is crude oil (fossil fuels). Renewable resources, by contrast, can be replenished, or are in abundant supply (such as wind, solar energy, etc.).


Why scientist concern about burning fossil fuels?

Because it is considered a non-renewable resource, meaning there is a limited supply of it. They are concerned because at the rate we are using fossil fuels they won't last us much longer.

Why are people trying to minimize the use of fossil fuels?

Because the more we burn fossil fuels the more it contributes to negative climate change such as global warming through the greenhouse effect. Fossil fuels are also a in limited supply and so we need to cut back or come up with other solutions.

Will you run out of fossil fuels or nuclear energy?

Answerfossil fuels, because nuclear energy will always be on earth no matter what.AnswerSince neither fossil fuels nor nuclear fuels are renewable, we will run out of both.Our supply of nuclear may outlast our supply of oil, but it will not outlast our supply of coal or oil shale.The good news is that technology is developing very quickly for renewable energy, so we will probably need neither fossil fuels nor nuclear in the long term.


Where are fossil fuels and minerals found?

The Earth's Lithosphere is the Crust and Upper Mantle. Fossil Fuels or Minerals Fuels are fossle source fuels, that is, carbon or hydrocarbons that are found on the earth's crust


Are fossil fuels limited?

Yes, fossil fuels such as coal, oil, and natural gas are limited resources because they take millions of years to form. Once they are depleted, they cannot be easily replaced on a human timescale. This is why there is a push towards alternative renewable energy sources.
