It took nature about 1 million years to create the amount of fossil fuels today's world consumes every year. How do you feel about that?

From Wikipedia: Fossil fuels or mineral fuels are fossil source fuels, that is, carbon or hydrocarbons found in the earth’s crust. It was estimated by the Energy Information Administration that in 2006 primary sources of energy consisted of petroleum 36.8%, coal 26.6%, natural gas 22.9%, amounting to an 86% share for fossil fuels in primary energy production in the world. Non-fossil sources included hydroelectric 6.3%, nuclear 6.0%, and (geothermal, solar, wind, wood waste) amounting 0.9 percent. World energy consumption was growing about 2.3% per year.
