Well, I am currently taking a geography class, and according to the geography books and my professor, we will run short of (petroleum) oil in about 40yrs, and it will be completely gone in 100-200yrs. There are a lot of barrels of oil in the Middle East and the Americas and other places of the world now, but it will be gone one day and I wonder what we'll do... in about 100yrs they'll probably say no more cars and only public transportation, then it'll all go from there. I can't wait until this oil crave is over.

Filtered water is greater useful now yet faucet water is valued much less. i do no longer even pay in line with gallon right here in Maryland. $33 a month gets me each and all the water i'd desire to apply. Oil is going to be lots greater costly if the present utilization of oil would not shrink. Its basic an economic central of furnish and insist. If call for keeps to be the comparable yet furnish is going down the value is going up

when you hear the media speaking of peak oil
then we are near half way ,for now we got enough known oil reserves to last 200 years
peak oil is yet a long way off
many oil states are barely found [see iraq has just found heaps more than sadman let the world know it had
it pays top make us think its running out
it never will , in the long term we wil ban it when better thingss [like the joe fuel cell get released ]
oil is not any real worry ,[of course the affect of burning it all is another matter]

Yes..
We will have oil for the next 100 years...but you are going to pay an arm and leg for it. I predict $5 a gallon by 2010.....

Sure. We just won't need it. Solar power and electric cars will be cheaper--and hydroelectric, nuclear, and other alternative energy sources will fill in the gaps.
Sayonara, big oil! LOL.

Yes. Oil is everywhere. Oil is in fish and plants and dogs and cats. Oil is in people. Oil is in corn. We'll have plenty of oil.

We will have if for as long as it is economically worth it to drill for. The reserve will expand as the price goes up. Eventually, after everyone alive has gone, it will probably be cheaper to use other sources.
