"There is no such a thing as a fossil fuel."

Could you explain better? There are a lot of fossils found in coal.

I have a fossilized tree trunk that is grade three coal (It will burn, but really poorly.). There used to be a store in West Va that sold fossils found in coal, most were just leaf imprints, but the store had plenty of stumps and logs.

Simple..
Take the THEORY... It is a theory, not a scientific fact... And just think about it for a few moments... Does the world operate off of dead dinosaurs?..

Simple logic applies... And there are more than a dozen pieces of simple logic to easily disprove this THEORY... and it is just a theory...

If you bury a dead animal in your yard, the theory holds that after a few years, you should be able to dig it up and have a pool of oil...
Do you really believe that?

I first heard this when I was in the fifth grade... It was absolutely stupid to me then, and over 50 years later, it makes even less sense...
I have run a program, based upon current weight and oil available, using the largest mammals on the planet, the blue whale.
I also used the average feeding range required for a cow and a calf, multiplied by 30...
If you take the theoretical land mass from over 200 million years ago, divide it by the theoretical range required to keep a 30 ton animal alive, along with the calf, figure a full grown animal dies every year, and is replaced with a full grown animal, and multiply that number by 200 million years, and figure each animal has 30 barrels of oil, the sum does not even come close to the current known reserves today.

The answer is false.
Unless you consider math as racist.
Then it’s the white man’s fault
