Natural gas is formed from dead animals and plants buried underground over millions of years. It exists in deep rock formations and is often found near oil fields. There are two mechanisms by which natural gas is created: biogenic natural gas forms from decaying organisms, while thermogenic natural gas forms from decayed organic material at high temperatures and pressures deep underground. Natural gas is a powerful fuel that is used for cooking, heating homes and buildings, and generating electricity via pipelines. When burned, natural gas is converted to carbon dioxide which contributes to global warming if levels in the atmosphere get too high.

2. How is natural gas made
Natural gas is made from dead animals and plants. And often
found in oil fields. Natural gas is found in deep underground
natural rock formations or associated with other hydrocarbon
reservoirs, in coal beds, and as methane clathrates. Petroleum
is also another resource found near and with natural gas.
Most natural gas was created over time by two mechanisms:
biogenic and thermogenic. Biogenic gas is created by
methanogenic organisms in marshes, bogs, landfills, and
shallow sediments. Deeper in the earth, at greater
temperature and pressure, thermogenic gas is created from
buried organic material.[2][3]

4. Domestic use
Natural gas dispensed from a simple cooker
can generate heat in excess (1093°C) making it
a powerful domestic cooking and heating fuel.
In much of the developed world it is supplied
to homes via pipes where it is used for many
purposes including natural gas-powered
ranges and ovens, natural gas-heated clothes
dryers, heating/cooling, and central heating.

6. Crystallized natural gas
• Huge quantities of natural gas (primarily
methane) exist in the form of hydrates under
sediment on offshore continental shelves and
on land in arctic regions that experience
permafrost, such as those in Siberia

7. How co2 is formed
When we burn natural gas it turns into CO2.
Which then warms up the earth. But we can’t
let to much CO2 (carbon dioxide) into the
earth atmosphere. So it doesn't warm the
earth to much. If it gets too hot then sea levels
will rise and most of the world will get
flooded. But for other countries it will get
dryer and dryer. So to stop this save the planet
and recycle, reuse and reduce. And stop
polluting the earth.
