    My apologies I lied to you.

    That information is wrong, coal is still being formed today. Although mostly in bogs, which provide an environment where decay doesn’t happen.

    About a million to 10 million times slower than we are using it though, and the rate is declining relatively as bogs are cleared or mined for peat/moss and our coal use increases year on year.

      All good! I thought about peet bogs, but its been so many years since i went through the formation of coal, i wasn’t sure enough to suggest it.
