You are likely right. It wasn't compressed dinosaurs or ferns. In all likelhood it was sequestered algie in sand and rock formations. It took millions upon millions of years to subsume and convert into oil.
Biodiesel is a good way for individuals to go to supplement their fuel. If you have to do much traveling it won't be an alternative, and it won't be available in the millions of barrels the world uses every day.
It's not algae either. Look at the elements in oil and in algae, and you'll see that they don't match. Elements don't just appear and disappear outside of a nuclear reaction.
Biodiesel will be available in the quantities we use. There's not millions of barrels right now, because there are very few vehicles that can use it.
BTW, the diesel engine was originally designed to use anything flammable that would go through the pipes.
I don't know where you get your knowledge, but oil is carbon and hydrogen and so is almost every living thing including algae.
It's not the carbon and hydrogen. It's all the other elements, such as potassium and calcium. Look at the entire list of elements contained in crude oil and in plants and animals. There are some glaring differences that no one can explain.
Where I get my knowledge, at least on this, is from science books.
