Do you think we'll run out of fossil fuels (oil) soon?

The studies says that we'll run out of oil in approximately 100 years... We'll all be dead by then so why care?


yeah well, if the world has about 85 percent of its needs were basicallly fucked already.
For the world to turn to chaos, it isn't necessary for ALL the oil to be gone, just 15-20 percent too short and the "World as we know it" is gone for ever.

And if VIABLE alternative fuel sources were available, we'd be using them already. As it stands now, we ARE using the available alternative fuel sources and they are all not really VIABLE ..

Without going into insane depth, I believe Oil is plentiful - taking into account what is discovered, refinery capacity and transportation.

It's all about Control and Power. "Peak Oil" is just a charade to justify the escalation of supply restrictions, price increases, wars/terrorism etc. By doing all of this you control the worlds economy.

What pisses me off most is anytime "Bush" + "Election" are put together it = "Cheap Gas at the Pump" here in the US.


Oh yeah oil is plentiful. It's just that after about 50 years the only oil left will be at such a great depth it'll cost more time and money to extract it then is practical.

It's the US thats in the most trouble with regards to this anyway. Most of the UN member countries are already working on alternative fuel sources along with the reduced carbon emission initiative.


Yes, that could possibly be true. But what I'm saying is (This may sound crazy) that there is on a massive scale - Price Fixing. I believe the estimates, numbers, etc of the amount of oil and price to refine are all fabricated as a scare tactic for various reasons.

I can't believe their estimates, especially when Peak Oil was supposed to have occured what? 30 years ago during the embargo? There are all sorts of theories, some stating that Oil is at a constant rate replenished etc. All I'm saying is I don't believe 99% of the shit that's fed to us, the Oil Crisis being something so blantantly obvious as a manipulation tool.


wtf ?

Just another tid bit, the oil shale fields in the US rockies and up into Canada could very well be the second or third largest field in the world, the only problem is producing the oil shale cheap enough. For years the oil shale was mined, in the 80s I believe they got the cost/bbl down to $40.

Right now Shell is poking around again doing tests to see if they can mine it "cheaply" or if they can drill it.

A lot of companies are going back and re-drilling existing wells because the first time they were drilled they only hit a fraction of the reserve. Conoco found a pretty large reserve in the Gulf last year, companies are also exploring off the Atlantic coast of Florida.

I was told the Russians have a theory that the oil and gas do not come from shrimp sh!t, seaweed and dinosaurs, they believe it is being produced from the core of the earth.
