Fuels burn in oxygen and release heat. 

• Fuels are Hydrocarbons i.e. they are made of the elements hydrogen and carbon. 
  
• Fossil fuels were created over millions of years from decayed plants and animals. 
  
• When fuels burn they release Carbon Dioxide and Water. 
  
• Carbon Dioxide is a Greenhouse Gas which causes Global Warming.
