I did a research project once on natural gas. I found eternal flames to be very interesting. An eternal flame is a flame that constantly burns; it is fed by a supply of natural gas (usually the supply is trapped between layers of shale). I visited an example of an eternal flame in Chestnut Ridge Regional Park in New York State. It is located underneath a waterfall...you should look up pictures of it. It's really neat and would add to your report! A good website is: www.pbase.com/calanan/eternal for pictures.

Most all fossil fuels that we mine or drill for today have come from the Carboniferous Era, a time of particularly high CO2 atmospheric concentrations. Through the burning of such fossil fuels, we're succeeding in replicating the high C02 levels and creation of Carboniferous Era II.

It is carbon 14 which indicates the age of the object to study the historical back ground of the object as well as the founding area.
