No. The big oil companies are behemoths, and unless they really blow it, (as have GM, et al) will continue to do very well. They are "energy" companies. They will simply move to supplying other forms of energy. And there will always be a need for oil for lubricants, etc.
Ultimately, we will of necessity(economy, global warming, etc) be compelled to move to nucelar energy. That is why the price of uranium has gone from under $8 to over to over $91per pound since 2001, without a single pull back, and the ascent continues! Huge profits have been made in the metal itself and in the companies who explore for, develop, and mine it.
Uranium is the only realistic source of energy in the quantities required by world civilization today, and the demands for energy in China, India, et al are just getting started! Also, global warming demands that we stop burning things to produce energy.
Ethanol is a political charade. We are burning food. Ask the poor in Mexico who now pay through the nose for the corn meal to make their tacos. And, when you consider the oil used for fertilizer and to run the tractors raising the corn, we use more fossil fuel to produce the corn than would have been used to produce the same amount of energy directly from the fossil fuels(oil, coal and natural gas).
Wind and solar just can't supply the quantities of energy needed at a price we can afford---to say nothing of the aesthetic complaints.
I am happy to learn of the vehicles offered by Phoenix Motors and support all hydogen fuel cell and hydrogen fuel based technology. The technology is already here for these types of vehicles. It's the infrastructure (fuelling stations, etc.) that is absent. And the key will be to produce the hydrogen, and thus, the electricity necessary to produce the hydrogen. Ultimately this electricity must come from nuclear power plants, that is, from URANIUM. Otherwise we are back to square one---burning oil, coal, and natural gas to produce electricity and from the electricity, the hydrogen.
So the hydrogen, hydrogen fuel cell and electric vehicle technology are great and the wave of the future, but the bottom line is we must move to nuclear to produce the bulk of our energy/electricity in order to utilize those technologies. Otherwise we continue to get it from burning things---oil, coal, natural gas, wood, trash, etc. All of which produce CO2, pollution, and global warming.
Unfortunately, the US lags the world in getting on the nuclear band wagon. Get with it! Spread the word! Light the fire under our leaders to get beyond greed, and do what needs to be done!

we will always need oil but not to the extent we use it today once hydrogen, electric, E-85 fuels take full effect in tomorrows vehicles. There is a guy working on a water burning car and he almost has it perfected, uses todays engines and is run on water only and puts out 0 emissions.

no. not in the least. itll be a long, long time until gas cars are phased out, and chances are the same companies will just convert their business into whatever the new energy source is.

via employing the internet, the liberal-biased media are dropping their power. human beings do no longer would desire to hearken to the exceptionally opinionated comments and editorials that dominate the mainstream newspapers and television. George Soros and Ted Turner can no longer dictate to the yank human beings, who it fairly is they might desire to vote for. by using fact the Vietnam conflict, the liberal-biased media has claimed "victory after victory" of their irresponsibly insane conflict against republican governments. For the sake of sensational headlines and media rankings, they have long previous out of their thank you to curve international activities to their particular factors of view. This has now finally been effectively challenged. it fairly is a delicate technique, as human beings steadily come to attain the apparent bias, and bypass to their computers quite. fool Barry is being "found out". the Most worthy anti-media gadget is on the coolest of your video reveal. it somewhat is the guidance seek window. Google is likewise a growing to be impression. human beings can now get right of entry to the actual data. Chat rooms, blogs, and boards like this (this one is probable the main influential, on condition that virtually anybody has Yahoo solutions as area of their possibilities on the initiate of having access to their internet connection. once you turn your laptop directly to Yahoo, this talk board is powerful there. The extra the liberal-biased media tries to play the internet impression and its veracity down, the extra we are in a position to work out the flexibility of mass impression slipping far off from The Washington submit, Chicago Tribune, the long island circumstances, and different as quickly as-foremost newspapers. maximum anybody is turning out to be disenchanted with MSNBC, CNN and comparable television "information" networks. truthfully, Fox isn't lots extra ideal, the two. it appears that evidently that the hot guidance source it somewhat is maximum depended on via maximum persons of individuals, besides as human beings in the process the international (China has limited use of the internet in the process the Olympic video games) is at your fingertips now. fool Barry does not have a huge gamble to win this election. if certainty be recommended purely too hassle-free to discover.
