Fun fact 2: Fossil fuels don't contain actual fossils. Petroleum comes from algae, bacteria, and plants, not dinosaurs.
Discussion
Fun fact:
fossil fuels contain 87% less fossil than they did in 1971
The most petroleum has abiotic origin. ...and new discoveries never stop...
WAIT, SO IT'S GREEN?
🤯
Energy stored in fossil fuels is essentially ancient sunlight
Are you sure? https://onepetro.org/PETSOCCIPC/proceedings-abstract/04CIPC/04CIPC/PETSOC-2004-301/4465
I’ve never understood how people that spout this theory can explain the boom in petroleum exploration success over the last century directly linked to the understanding of prolific shale rock driving petroleum exploration. Could abiotic hydrocarbons exist? Sure. Do they explain the majority of oil deposits we access today? Absolutely not.
I want a refund!
There's also an alternative hypothesis that it has mineral, not biological origin. (Some conteo ppl are keen on it, I'm neutral)
It's even mentioned on Wikipedia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abiogenic_petroleum_origin
Count me in! Hydrothermal thermogenic FTW
dinosaurs never existed, it's a lie by oil barrons and they paid the fake scientists to push that narrative in order to deceive the people into thinking oil is not plentiful,
oil is plentiful on earth and it always renews itself overtime,
but contains dinosaurs farts 😄
A plant can also create a fossil though, right?
