Gas is a cheat code to decades of stored solar energy. It wonât be cheap for ever. Once you mine up all that shit itâs gone.
Look at WV and their coal. Use to have 12 ft coal seams. Now all thatâs left are hard to reach low quality 1-2ft seams. At some point itâs not even worth the energy to extract.

There are people who believe the earth regenerates and creates more petroleum⌠In essence it will never run out
Thereâs probably a step g correlation to flat earthers

It will! Just not within human life spans thatâs my answer usually. Alot of their thoughts are grounded in something real. Its easier then telling them they are flat out wrong usually.
Unless itâs the flat earthers

It probably wonât to my understanding. Most fossil fuels are from large organic material deposits (usually from plants) underwater or in low oxygen environments where they arenât disturbed/donât decompose. Basically the conditions for fossil fuels to be remade donât exist anymore so we really arenât getting any more

Thereâs definitely location on earth where they will get generate again. Plus climate change only really means the extinction of all human life as we know it. Everything else will carry on, itâs not the first large level extinction event.
The conditions that created it are likely to arise again. Most oil deposits are actually from innumerable numbers of planktonic life that built up on the ocean floor. Coal is from plant matter though.
Point is its generally easier to redirect then reprogram people, with enough nudges theyâll start to see they are being lied to, or at least will know not to bother you with that specific subject anymore
