I wonder how much lithium there is.
Well, given that fusion power is perennially just 10 years away, we might be able to have it ready by then.
Our future gens need fossil fuels not for energy either.
for plastics, meds, fertilizers, paints, explosives etc.
It needs to be conserved.
This has been known for quite a long time, but the goal is to make the US poor. By making the US buy offshore oil, it pushed US dollars into the world market which does not fully come back to the US economy. If the US is oil independent, it keeps US dollars in the US, slowing the financial destruction of the US. Repeated in many industries that we were once “independent” in.
Is the United States still going to exist two centuries from now? Considering our current state of affairs I have my doubts.
We were running out so we needed to raise prices. Of course, we were not running out so they limited production capacity with limited refinery development for maximum profit.
Of course, the goooooooooooooberment gets its cut as well.
NOT buying their calculations
Probably 1,000 years of coal as well.
Heard the same crap in the ‘70’s.
Ya ,Oil is created at the earth’s core as a byproduct and moves to the surface so it’s almost unlimited ,LOL
These supplies can be extended by Bio-algae production and natural gas to butanol/hexanol synthesis.
Remember when they trusted the science....”50 years of oil left” back in the 1970’s?
Trust the science, not the scientist.
God created the science. The first scientists were Adam and Eve experimenting.
Scientists are biased, ignorant, evil, or all 3.
Says a scientist.
“In 2023, the U.S. produced nearly 13 million barrels per day, more than any other nation in history.”
The American oil industry will do that for the foreseeable future.
This does not even count the oil that is not allowed to be drilled for. California sits on an ocean of oil as does Alaska and many states in the USA. Now about all the oil offshore. Add the natural gas and the fact that oil wells replenish.
