I don't think you understand the price of the depletion of oil. Every car must be replaced, every gas station must be replaced etc. Also the majority of natural gas is formed where oil is found. The food industry will also suffer - currently it is totally reliant on oil and natural gas. The main consumer is the process of Ammonia used for fertiliser in the Haber process. A Geologist has predicted that once oil supplies run low in the next few decades, the whole world will suffer unprecedented famine. He states that the world population must be reduced by two thirds to avoid disaster. |
We wont get that far tho! The world is going to end in 2012 =)
What really needs to happen is independent living - sustainance farming, solar/wind energy for housing and vehicles, 100% recycling in each country. If we are less dependent, we can survive seperate of what happens on the world stage
