Fossil fuels are essentially the remains of plants of animals. They provide us with a source of nonrenewable energy. Fossil fuels can either come in the form of an oil, coal, or natural gas. They are the result of the decomposition of dead plant and animal matter buried deep in the Earth's crust. These fossil fuels are then pumped from underground and used in a variety of ways.
Interesting Fossil Fuel Facts:
It takes millions of years for fossil fuels to develop.
The fossil fuels we use today began forming during the Carboniferous Period which was before dinosaurs ruled the Earth.
Oil, also called petroleum, is pumped from underground and can be turned into products such as gasoline and electricity.
If your house uses natural gas for cooking and heating, this is a form of a fossil fuel that lies underground usually above oil.
Coal is another fossil fuel used to generate electricity and is found closer to the Earth's surface.
Although fossil fuels are mainly used to make electricity, they are also used to power machines such as cars and planes.
Fossil fuels are nonrenewable which means they cannot be made by humans.
Fossil fuels in their natural form must first be burned in order to be used as electricity.
When fossil fuels are burned, they release unhealthy toxins into the air we breathe.
Around 90% of our energy comes from fossil fuels.
The energy stored in fossil fuels comes from the sun.

the study of fossils is called alien paleontology.
Fossils connect us to our past i.e. they acf as a connecting link between us and our ancestors.
For eg. the dinosour Archeopteryx. It was a reptile but had feathers that provided him warmth. However those feathers connect the dinosour to birds. Thus, we can conclude that fossils act as a connecting link between our ancestors and us and also throw a light on our past.
