A combustible and asedimentary rock



What is coal Coal is a combustible and a

sedimentary rock. This meansit can be burnt very well. Coaltakes millions of years to

create. It is a non-renewableenergy source and it willeventually run out becausepeople burnt it and then it

becomes useless. Coal is anabundant fossil fuel. There isa lot of abundant fossil fuels

around the world and forthese days it is easy to findcoal on the surface. In thefuture there will be a limited

amount of coal and it will bevery hard to find coal.



What coal ismade out of



How Coal is made? Coal is made from a lot ofminerals undergroundpushed together. Coal is

made from the energywhich is stored by plants. Itis stored by plantsbecause a layer of dead

plants at the bottom of theswamps were covered oflayers of water and dirt,

trapping the energy of thedead plants. The heat andpressure made the plantsremain for a long time then

it was made into.

What Are Some Problems With

Electricity and Fossil Fuels?One of the most common ways toproduce electricity is by burning fossilfuels.In fossil fuels there are coal, oil

and natural gas. When fossil fuels getburned, it releases carbon dioxide intoatmosphere and it leads to acid rainand global warming. These are bigproblems for our environment. Another concern is that we will run outof fossil fuels in the future. Fossil fuelsare non renewable resources thatmeans that it will take millions of years

to create. So that's why we should startdeveloping and managing new ways touse renewable recources such as windand water power.
