    This is nonsense. We find oil faster than we use it most years, proven reserves have been an upward trend basically forever. If we completely stopped looking for oil we still have about 50 years left at the current rate and we have bigger problems if we haven’t slowed consumption in 50 years.

      I didn’t say that we’ll run out in our lifetime, but we will run out. It’s a finite resource.
