Fossil Fuels

Fossil fuels are natural substances formed from the remains of ancient plants and animals that have been subjected to heat and pressure over millions of years within the Earth’s crust. They consist primarily of hydrocarbons and include coal, oil, and natural gas. These fuels are used extensively for energy production, powering vehicles, generating electricity, and in various industrial processes. Fossil fuels are considered non-renewable resources because they are consumed faster than they can be replenished naturally. Their combustion releases carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases into the atmosphere, contributing to climate change and environmental pollution. Consequently, there is a growing emphasis on transitioning from fossil fuels to renewable energy sources for a more sustainable energy future.
