lol... theres a proven 100 years worth of oil left in one oil sand field in canada.

well with the optimistic predcitions of just a few decades left, that means realist means like what 1-2 decades before we run out. so that means I dont have to wait to long to laugh at the hilarious number. 


Total reserves are estimated at 250 billion barrels or so (http://www.worldenergy.org/documents/ser_2010_report_1.pdf) total consumption is about 90 million barrels a day (http://omrpublic.iea.org/) 250,000,000,000/90,000,000 = ~2770. That's a bit over seven years.

Lol, I'll see you in 8 years, when we are still using oil like today, and yet mysteriously still have more.
