II. WHAT I NEED TO KNOW
DISCUSSION
Coal, crude oil, and natural gas are different types of fossil
fuels. Coal is a rock-like material made from plant matter that
lived in swampy areas and is widely used as a fuel. Crude oil is
unrefined petroleum extracted from the underground reservoirs.
It can be treated to form other products such as gasoline,
plastics, and tar. Natural gas is a naturally occurring
hydrocarbon gas made up of methane and other alkanes such
as butane and propane. Natural gas can be used as fuel for
cooking and generating electricity. Crude oil and natural gas
are from marine organisms.

plant remains and water. Peat is quite unconventional to use
because it needs to be dried out and it produces large
amounts of smoke.
• Lignite is formed when increased pressure from sediments
transforms peat. It still has traces of plant remains. It is
abundant but used only when more efficient fuels are
unavailable.
• Bituminous forms when even more pressure is applied to
lignite. No trace of plant materials can be observed in this
stage. It is the most abundant form of coal and a major
source of heat energy.
• Anthracite is the last stage of coal formation. It has the
hardest consistency among the stages of coal. This form
resulted from extreme pressure and high temperature on the
layers of sediments. Anthracite burns with a short flame and
only produces a little smoke.
First Stage
• Marine plants and animals gather energy from the sun and
their food to increase the organic materials in their bodies.
• When they perish, their bodies sink under the ocean.
Second Stage
• The remains of the marine organisms are buried under
sediments as time passes.
Third Stage
• More sediments bury the remains of marine plants and
animals.
• These sediments turn into sedimentary rock after millions of
years.
Fourth Stage
• The heat and pressure from the sedimentary rock slowly turn
the plant and animal matter into crude oil.

• Some of the crude oil migrate in porous rocks while others
remain trapped in impermeable rock reservoirs.
Stage 1
• Microscopic plants and animals from the ocean die and sink
to the bottom of the ocean. Sediments, plants, and bacteria
form layers above these organisms.
Stage 2
• Heat and pressure increase as the remains of these
organisms are buried deeper by sediments. A biomass made
from plant materials and exposed to greater heat produces
natural gas.
Stage 3
• The natural gas migrates through the pores in the rocks.
Some escape to the Earth’s surface while others are caught
in impermeable rocks and clays and become trapped
deposits of natural gas.

Problems with Fossil Fuels
Oil producing and exporting countries are aware that the fossil
fuel supply may not last long. Fossil fuels are non-
renewable and finite resources because of the extensive
process of their formation. Several problems are faced due to
the usage of fossil fuels.
