IntroductionFossil fuels, coal, oil and natural gas, are a non-renewable source of energy. Formed from plants and animals that lived up to 300 million years ago, fossil fuels are found in deposits beneath the earth. The fuels are burned to release the chemical energy that is stored within this resource. Energy is essential to moden society as we know it. Over 85% of our energy demands are met by the combustion of fossil fuels. These two pie charts show exactly how vital fossil fuels are to our society by showing how much of each energy resource is consumed.
Fuels obtained from the ground are called fossil fuels. These include coal, oil, and natural gas, which are formed from the remains of plants and animals that lived millions of years ago. Burning fossil fuels releases energy but also contributes to air pollution and climate change.
Shale oil and tar sands are among the hardest fossil fuels to extract from the ground. They require advanced extraction methods such as hydraulic fracturing and mining, which can be environmentally destructive and costly.
Fossil fuels are dead animals and plants rotted into the ground and turn into turf and the like. That is what your turf is made of. It take millions of years for a bog to grow so thaqts why we have to be careful we dont use it all.
Fossil fuels such as coal, oil and natural gas generally need to be extracted from the earth. Mining and well drilling (depending on the substance) are the two main methods for accomplishing this.
Eventually, fossil fuels will run out.Fossil fuels cause a lot of pollution.
Most fossil Fuels comes from the ground soil or in mountains
In the ground! silly....
u suck on it
Deep in the ground: fossil fuels.
Drilling into the ground, mining.
Many companies remove the fossil fuels from the earths crust by machines called drilling rigs.
Fossil fuels come from fossilied plant matter in the ground. Alternative fuels are alternatives to fossil fuels, and these are mainly carbon fuels that take their carbon from carbon dioxide in the atmosphere (as fossil fuels do) but on a carbon cycle with a much shorter term. An example is wood, which can be burned as more trees are growing and absorbing carbon dioxide.

how r fossil fuels canverted to fuels
Deep underneath the ground and in trace amounts in fossil fuels.
