Take the largest oil reserve in the world. BIILIONS of barrels of oil. 42 gallons per barrel

A 10 gal fish tank is 20"x12"x10"

Multiply HUNDREDS of BILLIONs of Barrels by 42 GALLONS, then figure the shear size THAT ONE reserve is.

Now theory is that dinosaurs and vegetation under heta PRESSUER and time turn into oil. PRESSURE compacts mass.

That means these massive oil reserves had to be much larger before the plant and animal mass was compressed.

Now when plants or animals die, they decompose into dust or compost. What caused all this plant and animal material to NOT decompose, but to be trapped underground in stassis, to be compressed and heated over time? How did what was on TOP of the earth, in a relatively short period of time, get transported 10,000 feet below the surface?

Now take all your figuring, and apply that to NUMEROUS oil reserves ALL OVER the world.

These current KNOWN reserves would be OVER a TRILLION BARRELS.

Because all of this take place on ocean floors over hundreds of millions of years.

Exactly.

The “Fossil Fuel Theorists” have an obligation to explain what all that carbon was doing on the surface in the first place, how it got so deep in the earth without becoming CO2 again, and to describe the world with those concentrations of CO2.
