Natural gas was created millions of years ago. Millions of years ago, the earth was filled with small sea creatures. Once they died their corpses fell to the bottom of the ocean. After many years, rock and sediment formed over the dead organisms and the pressure resulted in the creation of a substance called peat. The heat from the center of the earth caused the peat to turn into petroleum.
Natural gas is a fossil fuel which is primarily composed of methane (CH4). It has several various uses, such as being used to power industrial machinery, homes, and businesses. When compressed to less than 1 percent of its original value, natural gas can be used as a substitute for gasoline in cars.
