Where can i find fossil fuels?
A fossil fuel by definition is “Any naturally occurring organic fuel formed in the Earth’s crust, such as petroleum, coal and natural gas”. In broader sense it is called like that because its formation dates from the Paleozoic era (Carboniferous period). So the places you can find it are the ones which correspond to old deposits from this period, that sustained changes in pressure and temperature which allowed the enrichment of carbon and the presence of geological traps (in the case of oil) to maintain the reserves in place. In general nowadays the top 10 producers are concentrated in the Middle East, Russia, Canada, East coast of Africa (offshore), west coast of South America and fewer quantities in Asia (Indonesia, Timor), Alaska, Northern Europe, Australia among others.
