HOW ARE FOSSIL FUELS FORMED?
- Fossil fuels are non-renewable.
- formed over millions of years, from the remains of dead organisms.
- coal was formed from dead plant material crude oil
- gas were formed from dead marine organisms.
- dead organisms are put under a lot of pressure, so eventually form fossils

HOW CAN WE USE IT RESPONSIBLY?
- There are many alternatives to fossil fuels

WHY FOSSIL FUELS ARE MORE POPULAR?
- They are cheaper
- They are more widely available, and easy to produce
- A lot of money can be made from fossil fuel when countries find it
- No development needed like having to make turbines
