What's gonna happen when USA runs out of oil next decade?
>>540525686Italy is at 40% of renewable energy production now.We could easily reach 60% by 2030
>>540525686Oil is renewable
>>540526057what happens if the rate of depletion exceeds the rate of regeneration?
>>540526166What a pointless question
>>540526283how is it a pointless question? did you ever take calculus in college?
>>540526035you will rely of algeria's green hydrogen + algeria's solar electricity throught underwater cablejust like you rely on algeria's gas rn
>>540525686war, errr fight for oppressed people
>>540526327>Derp what happens if you drink more milkshake than milkshake gets made derp?Clearly you run out, like very other resource that is used above its regeneration rate.So... you slow your usage
>>540525686We'll probably just have to stop exporting it.
You're lookin at er bud
Don't worry. There will not be America next decade
>>540525686not my problembut we could drill for more?
Ypu had electric cars in the 1900s, it's purely a self inflicted problem.
>>540526425>So... you slow your usagewould totally destroy the US economy, far worse than COVID shutdowns.
>>540526474Ironically, people preferred early electrics because easy ICE were crazy filth, noise and made anyone operating it smell like poor.But gasoline was a sub product of kerosene, so it was cheaper than water...
>>540526166You will grow more cornslop, it's very easy to build 100% ethanol motors but so far it's cheaper to pull oil out of the earth. That will change if oil prices go up and cornslop is renewable.Making coal to oil like we did back then in WWII is possible too and we have coal reserves for many centuries and with this too it's just not as cheap as the normal oil way but could be at some point.
>>540526527Didn't destroy China
>>540526590Corn is horrible for ethanol. The only reason America does it is to keep farmers above poverty line.
>>540526527>>540526590>>540526653you can produce green hydrogen at sub 2 dollars per kilogram at current solar energy pricehttps://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S0360319926001837you can transition to full green energy easilyit's a solved problemgermany will buy 4 million tons by 2035 from Algeria (SOUTH2 project)
>>540525686>VenezuelaLMFAO!LOOKS LIKE THEY ALREADY SOLVED THAT ONE!
>>540526898you can divide venezuela's reserves by 20 to get the real number according to expertsand their oil is garbage tier
>>540526619because they have a triple digit IQ and invested in solar, nuclear, and hydroelectric. they also have no qualms about using coal as a stopgap measure.
>>540525686oil will never run out its renewable the green lobby want you to believe it isn't
>>540525686PicrelBut who cares, we've got other more pressing issues incoming
>>540527344Okay, we'll send more Indians. That's what I read between the lines. More fuel = BIGGER population to send out of India.
