How are fossil fuels created? What are the pros and cons of using them?
Fossils fuels are derived from the dead vegetation and corpses of plants and animals that existed 1000s and 10,000s of years ago. Pretroleum is the most useful substance we get from the ground, we get plastics, solvents, fuels just to name a few things… literally everything we use today has some petroleum product in it. Gasoline is the most popular product and we use a lot of it. The only Con to it is that its become a political issue, Democrats and some Republicans are blocking efforts to drill for more of it and refine it because they buy into the eco-nut whinings and man-made global warming myth. The Fact remains there is no resource out there either natural or synthetic that can replace petroleum.
