I mean, it’s not just dino corpses. We also use an incredible amount of dead forests as fuel. We really showed nature who’s the boss, huh?
Fun fact: Oil mostly comes from the a mass extinction event involving cyanobacteria, not dinosaurs. We just can’t stop calling them fossil fuels.
… are they not fossils of the cyanobacteria
Not by the usual definition. The carbon, etc that used to form the cyanobacteria is completely broken down and formed into miscellaneous hydrocarbons. There’s no petrified remains, nor rock impressions of the bacteria.
FWIW that was always my concept of fossil fuels to begin with.
Like whatever you just said, but for dinosaurs and all the life from before.
dinosaurs are a basically insignificant % of the biomass by my understanding
But aren’t their atoms perfectly preserved? (gasping at straws)
Not all of them. Some of the carbon atoms will have decayed into (I think) nitrogen.
In think nature is warming up a big dish of karma.
I mean, it’s not our fault nature is so flammable
It was way, way, way before dinosaurs. Actually dinosaur remains are a poor combustible (whereas mummies, on the other hand…).
Additionally, the batter is made up of their eggs.
You cook dino nuggies in a pan?
So vegetarians who use solar power are really helping human-dino relations
I dont know, hopefully
i eat veggy dino nuggies
so i still might scare them
oof
This is our vengeance for them causing global warming.
Does the Dino ask “What’s a Human?”
Not after that anymore.
