Last week in Science, Miss Atterton taught us about Fossil Fuels and how important they are to our survival. There are three types of Fossil Fuels which are coal, oil and natural gas. Without these we wouldn't have heating and cooling which is vital to our survival and health.
Mining and extracting these fossil Fuels from the Earth can have devastating effects to nature. We got to mine for coal using chocolate chip biscuits. The chocolate chips were the coal and the biscuits were the Earth. We had to extract the chocolate chips out of the biscuit using tooth picks and then examine the biscuit without the choc chips in it. It was very interesting to see what mining for coal can do to the Earth.
