Question

2 The energy stored in fossil fuels came from the Sun.
Describe how this energy was trapped and stored
for millions of years.​

Answer 1

Answer:

All the energy in oil, gas, and coal originally came from the sun, captured through photosynthesis. In the same way that we burn wood to release energy that trees capture from the sun, we burn fossil fuels to release the energy that ancient plants captured from the sun

Energy--and Carbon Dioxide--from the Past

Another problem with our heavy use of fossil fuel is associated with the release of carbon dioxide. By burning fossil fuels, we are not only consuming energy that has been stored for a million years but also releasing carbon that has been stored for a million years. This huge release of carbon (in the form of carbon dioxide) is overwhelming the natural cycles that balance the amount of carbon dioxide in the air.
