Original Note:
The story of Rockefeller promoting the term fossil fuel to suggest scarcity is an urban myth. The word fossil originally meant something dug up (see early dictionaries) so fossil fuels are fuels obtained from the ground. It’s use for petroleum predates Rockefeller’s prominence. https://t.co/vH96e6V42L
