I really do wonder how long it will take before we run out of oil. Scary stuff. Estimates are all over the place.

75% of the earth is covered with water. Areas heavily exploited are on land. It is just more difficult and expensive to get the oil from 20000 feet below sea level. There is alot out there. The stuff to easily extract will run out first.

Phase one squeeze the people, here in the UK it's working as petrol stations has seen a 0.5 down turn on sales. It's all part of eking it out to the last drop. There is no solution to what will replace oil and that is a fact, in the mean time if your rich your not affected yet.
