Fossil Fuels
Fossil fuels are made from a combination of decomposing animals and plants. They are usually found between sedimentary rocks and fossil fuels such as oil, coal and natural gas take millions of years to form. These fuels are non-renewable. They are also said to be responsible for almost three quarters of the existing emissions from human activities.
