Original Note:
Rockefeller didn't come up with the term "Fossil Fuels", didn't pay scientists to use it to pretend it was scarce, and oil/coal/natural gas take millenia to form, meaning it takes longer for them to be formed then to be consumed. https://www.reuters.com/article/factcheck-fossil-fuel-rockefeller/fact-check-the-term-fossil-fuel-was-not-coined-by-john-d-rockefeller-to-trick-people-into-thinking-oil-is-a-scarce-commodity-idUSL1N2QQ1UK
