It was Svante Arrhenius, a Swedish scientist who was the first to claim that fossil fuel combustion MAY eventually result in enhanced global warming. An example of fossil fuel is coal. Coal is a solid fossil fuel formed over millions of years by decay of vegetation. Coal is a sedimentary rock containing mostly of vegetal matter las that contains carbon hydrogen oxygen, nitrogen sulfur and some inorganic mineral elements. When this material decays under water in the absence of oxygen, the carbon content increases. The initial product of this decomposition process is known as peat
