Yes, the sun comes up, every day. But it also goes down. Until someone invents a storage system that functions at 100% peak efficiency during blackouts, the sun going down, saharan dust storms or, dare I say it, nuclear winter. Fossil fuels is what’s on the menu.

Your description of their formation is spot on, but they are still fossil fuels. “Over millions of years, heat and pressure from Earth’s crust decomposed these organisms into one of the three main kinds of fuel: oil (also called petroleum), natural gas, or coal. These fuels are called fossil fuels, since they are formed from the remains of dead animals and plants.” There is a limited amount of fossil fuels available for consumption. The energy in those fuels hit the earth millions of years ago.

We need more renewable energy, energy from the sun that just hit the earth. Renewable energy is here today and will be here tomorrow and each day that the sun comes up.

This is the truth. We need another name for it etched into the lexicon. “Fossil Fuel” is them controlling the narrative through the use of language. Might I suggest “Earth Fuel”, the limitless supply of bio-energy provided by the planet for us to use? Of course, completely open to other terms, let’s hear some suggestions. It has to be catchy, not too wordy, and easily marketable. But imo, “Earth Fuel” is the most apt descriptor.
