Ok, so maybe we'll find another 5 trillion barrels under the ocean which will last us beyond our current generation, but there is no ongoing geological process that is producing more oil as fast as we're consuming it
or maybe they already have non-petroleum technologies ready to go which they can use to maintain their monopoly in the future and they're just milking the earth dry before they start promoting their new "innovations".
I'm sure that in time we will figure it out, it just worries me how few people realize that there will need to be monumental changes and we won't be able to drive around in huge Dodge Ram Trucks with double 4" exhausts forever. Consider yourself as living in the 200 year golden age within our planet's 6 billion-or-so year lifetime.
It's time to start living the future or there won't be one.
Yeah, great solution, let's just keep burning stuff until there's nothing left on the planet but ash and carbon monoxide. It took millions of years for oil to form under the surface of the earth and we are using it all up in less than 200 hundred years. There is no space ship coming from another planet with fresh energy supplies so at some point in the not so far future every possible kind of fossil fuel is going to run out, and we have to find sustainable energy sources in order for society to continue existing in its current form and not returning to the rain forests to hunt and gather. Big oil doesn't care because they're all rich and will be dead before it runs out.
