History of Coal 1: Coalification




Making of a Historian show

Summary: Show notes--including a wonderful custom made image!--at historian.live Making of a Historian is BACK doing a season on the history of coal. We start at the very beginning, in the Carboniferous period 300 million years ago. Then giant plants got trapped in oxygen-poor bogs and started to form the black burnable rock that will be at the center of our history. Questions? Feedback? Treats?
