Dr Thomas Gold, the astrophysicist discussed in his 1998 book The Deep Hot Biosphere, was that oil and coal are not remnants of ancient surface life. Gold instead argued that these deposits are produced from primordial hydrocarbons dating back to when the Earth was formed. He claimed that volatile gases then migrate towards the surface through cracks in the crust, and either leak into the atmosphere as methane, become trapped in sub-surface gas fields.
Gold received many honours in his lifetime, having been made a fellow of the Royal Society and elected to the US National Academy of Sciences. He also served on the President's Science Advisory Committee.
you too could have gas!
