Feb 10, 2022Fossil fuel is made from decomposing plants and animals. Once extracted from the Earth's crust, fossil fuels are made into different forms of energy. They can be used as a heating element, to power machines, gas, and many other things. This type of energy is a non-renewable energy source. Meaning there is a limited supply of fossil fuels.

The U.S. is one of the top exporters of coal in the world. Most exported U.S. coal goes to Western Europe, Canada, and Japan. Coal is recovered from the earth by surface mining or deep mining. Surface mining, or strip mining, is less expensive and usually occurs on flat land. Deep mining requires digging shafts and tunnels to get to the coal seam.
