PETROLEUM

Petroleum is a fossil fuel. Petroleum is often called crude oil, or oil.
It is called a fossil fuel because it was formed from the remains of
tiny sea plants and animals that died millions of years ago. When the
plants and animals died, they sank to the bottom of the oceans.
Here, they were buried by thousands of feet of sand and sediment,
which turned into sedimentary rock. As the layers increased, they
pressed harder and harder on the decayed remains at the bottom.
The heat and pressure changed the remains and, eventually,
petroleum was formed.
Petroleum deposits are locked in porous rocks almost like water is
trapped in a wet sponge. When crude oil comes out of the ground,
it can be as thin as water or as thick as tar. Petroleum is called a
nonrenewable energy source because it takes millions of years to
form. We cannot make new petroleum reserves.

  3. Okay dhilla accepted the love of his questions
    I think.
    1.used goods that are not only to be disposable when going to a picnic, streets, or daily activity
    2. Buy clothes made from organic cotton or hemp - not from oil derivatives products.
    3. select products packaged without plastic and when forced to use plastic, recycle or reuse the packaging, do not immediately discarded.
    4. Buy fruits and organic vegetables (fertilizers and pesticides currently available contain a lot of oil

    1. hello mirda :D may I give the solution of the answers dila ?

      We can help conserving fossil fuels by reducing our usage of electricity. Since electricity comes from the burning of fossil fuels, the demand to burn fossil fuels for energy will be reduced. Cutting down the usage of vehicles and converting to other forms of public transport can also help conserve petroleum.

      thank you :)

  7. oke vina thanks question
    answer if petroleum is completely discharged, is there a substitute for petroleum?
    we can use nuclear energy as an alternative to petroleum. One of them is planning to build nuclear power plants
    Proved the existence of a nuclear reactor that supplies the energy needs for the NPP (Nuclear Power Plant) in Japan as a substitute for oil.

  8. mirda , may I try the question of awang. ok i will try to answer the question awang . In general, natural resource by its nature can be classified as natural resources and renewable natural resources can not be diperbaharui.sumber natural resources are renewable natural resources can continue to exist as long as their use is not overexploited. Plants, animals, microorganisms, sunlight, wind, and water are some examples of renewable natural resources. Although the numbers are very abundant in nature, its consumer must remain restricted and maintained in order to be sustainable. natural resources are non-renewable natural resources are limited due to their use faster than the process of its formation and when used continuously going up. Petroleum, gold, iron, and various other mineral generally require time and a very long process to re-form so that number is very limited., Petroleum and natural gas, primarily from the remains of animals and plants that lived millions of years ago , mainly formed and derived from the perairan.Perubahan pressure and heat during this year jutaaan then change the material and the organic compounds into the various types of minerals.
    therefore do things to economize on oil as power savings, reduced fuel use, and more and save on water usage. especially now that the frequent occurrence of cases of lack of clean water. then let us do the savings
