OIL DOES NOT COME FROM DINOSAURS
Plastic algae is real algae?
This is pure gold
unexpectedly… profound?
I think I heard that most of it is algae and plankton and stuff.
That and trees from a time when there wero no organisms yet that could decompose cellulose.
that’s where coal comes from I thought
*Lignin, not cellulose.
Petrolium is made from ancient algae and plants, not dinosaurs.
Ancient algae that fed on dinosaurs

But if carnivorous dinosaurs eat herbivorous dinosaurs, and herbivorous dinosaurs eat plants, then all dinosaurs are plants.
And plants eat sunlight, so all life on earth is the sun.
Yes, we are all stardust.
Im vegan because i subsist off of grass-fed beef.
See, I knew the world revolves around me.
Or, in this formulation, the world is you? :-O
Chicken nuggets shaped like dinos are a better example
Not to be that guy, but isn’t oil actually from all the trees that lived, died and got subducted, before there were any bacteria around capable of biodegrading them? So basically as soon as those bacteria arrived, no more oil was getting produced.
Nah, oil’s algae. Trees turned to coal.
Trees turn into peat which lithifies into coal. The anoxic and acidic conditions of peat bogs can slow decomposition enough to allow peat and coal to form so not all coal is from the Carboniferous, just most of it.
Also the evolutionary lag hypothesis that attributes that extra Carboniferous coal to a lack of lignin decomposers has been thrown into doubt.
Ah cool. But it’s not dinosaurs that’s for sure.
Sort of, like Pringles aren’t really potato chips, but they are made of the same stuff and have the same shape.
im 14 and this is deep
So we’re eating credit cards-amounts of dinosaurs, got it (I think this has been debunked, recently?)
