hundreds of years? they took thousands to create . We will run out,better to try now and not be at the whim of greedy markets,it wouldn’t be so bad had the Tories not flogged our national assets of mind you
We will never run out of oil, as such, because we can’t currently easily extract every drop of oil from an oil reserve. Technology allows us to extract more from a reservoir, but as we have to use more challenging technologies to bring up yield, the costlier it will be and eventually it will be far less costly to use alternatives. The idea that we can rely on oil for hundreds of years is still one to to be sceptical of, but it’s not because every drop of oil will have been depleted.
