Wow, nothing but Doom and Gloom. Looks like the only answer is to stop providing compassion, medicines and foods to places that aren't at 0 population growth so we don't put additional strains on natural resources. Either that or we need to start evacuating planet Earth.

Yup! And drop them on China, India and Africa. That’ll reduce the population by about 3 billion and save that much more oil for the rest of us!

You have 30 days to leave the earth. I have found a better tennant.
Love,
God

"Wow, nothing but Doom and Gloom."
Really? I read the title as a good thing. Like "woo hoo" no more dependence on religious zealot controled third world governments that only pretend to give a damn about us. I guess it's all in the perspective.

Of more interest to me was the report that the surge had failed and that 1 in 5 in the world have high speed Internet. Not being one of those privileged 20% I was unable to read the article you supposedly linked to.
Oh, I forgot. WE’RE ALL DOOMED!

The democrats are saving all our US reserves on purpose?

The oil locked up in the oil shale and tar sands in eastern Utah, western Colorado, and northern Alberta dwarfs in size the crude oil reserves of Iran, Iraq, and Saudi Arabia. When the cost of a gallon of gasoline reaches about $5 a gallon, it will be economically feasible to exploit these reserves. That’s with current technology. As the technology improves, the economic break-even point will drop.

Dreaming.
Oil is the most versatile material ever discovered by Man.
Besides the many petroleum products that can be separated directly and indirectly from it, it also an indispensible source of starter chemicals for various industries.
Oil is not going away anytime soon.

Randy Newman said it best:
Political Science
No one likes us-I don't know why
We may not be perfect, but heaven knows we try
But all around, even our old friends put us down
Let's drop the big one and see what happens
We give them money-but are they grateful?
No, they're spiteful and they're hateful
They don't respect us-so let's surprise them
We'll drop the big one and pulverize them
Asia's crowded and Europe's too old
Africa is far too hot
And Canada's too cold
And South America stole our name
Let's drop the big one
There'll be no one left to blame us
We'll save Australia
Don't wanna hurt no kangaroo
We'll build an All American amusement park there
They got surfin', too
Boom goes London and boom Pair-ee
More room for you and more room for me
And every city the whole world round
Will just be another American town
Oh, how peaceful it will be
We'll set everybody free
You'll wear a Japanese kimono
And there'll be Italian shoes for me

I thought we were supposed to be out of oil already.

Folks, I remember when I was in graduate school in the early sixties it was predicted we would be out of oil by the year 2000. That is how much I believe this estimate.
To: xrp
They have played this same story dozens of times and yet periodically the geologists revise the amount of untapped reserves steadily upward.

When the cost of a gallon of gasoline reaches about $5 a gallon, it will be economically feasible to exploit these reserves. The 'break even' point on the oil from the tar sands is about $50.00 a barrell. We past the awhile ago and Alberta is booming!
