It is predicted that we will run out of fossil fuels in this century. Oil can last up to 50 years, natural gas up to 53 years, and coal up to 114 years. Yet, renewable energy is not popular enough, so emptying our reserves can speed up.Jan 18, 2021 Gonna have to do something before long...

And if manufacturing shortages to inflate prices to hurt the average joe doesn't force a miraculous innovation in tech , that makes "green energy" a viable option to run an entire nation. , the Great die off from starvation and freezing to death will leave more good old reliable fossil fuels for those left ( the elites, most likely) ...

I am in panic-lite, though. Stock up on consumables. They aren't going down in price any time soon. Just found pork shoulders for 99 cents/lb and restocked the chest freezer. Surely the pandemic taught people the value of having a month or two of food supplies at the ready, right? |

That’s internet propaganda. With modern extraction techniques we have enough fossil reserves to power America for hundreds of years or more. The gulf and Alaska alone can satisfy us for lots longer than 50 years, and that just oil. We have even more natural gas and coal than oil. The way things are going the last few years, the Big Man upstairs will have come again and left before we run out of fossil reserves. At the end of the day I firmly believe HE is still very much in charge.

We heard growing up in the 1970’s & 1980’s (I was born in 70) oil would be gone by 2010. Completely. The world was also going to be in another ice age.

Born in '69 young man and remember hearing that same s@#t!! Plus, if anyone knows about this, it's Aqua Blue RS/SS by being in the industry. I am in the computer industry and where do you think we are getting the chips from, Taiwan and China has a bulls eye on them. Plus, who's going to tell China to stop polluting the earth. NO ONE. Fossils are staying but I have no issue if you want to buy an electric car.

elon musk is another. makes his billions of the backs of his workers. lets see him drink some chernobl water. don't have spell check but you get my drift. i know a guy high up that analyzes for certain entities. without a doubt sleepy joe has the early signs of dementia, he gets flustered and short tempered, avoids confrontation. all signs. just saying watch him if you can stand being lied to your face everyday. jen psacki needs to jump back on her broom and fly back to the rock she crawled out from under. just saying... only an opinion everyone has one oh i ordered my propane today, lord looking out for me got it locked in at 2.49 a gallon i freaked. peace to us all my brothers we'll get thru this. need to go watch a good drag race road race etc. and sniff some fumes and relax..... whew! i'm done.....

Got gas at HEB off i-45 in League City (south of Houston) and the premium (93) was going for $4.27/gallon. What sucks even more, is the Wal-Mart Neighborhood Market on the other side of the freeway was selling their premium (93) for $3.89/gallon.
These price swings really blows.

I have to chuckle when I hear 50 years from now......... 100 years from now..........I don't think any of you have anything to worry about. I believe we will be lucky if we make 2030 let alone 50 years from now. Life as we know it a thing of the past, welcome to h e double hockey sticks.
