#1 Give oil industry own estimates place the world Oil reserves at around 32 to 39 years, a viable economic and safe fuel/energy alternative solution needs to be found for vehicles ASAP.

As I said in an earlier comment, make around 5am not displayed yet. Electrical powered EV 's are s not that solution. Simply, having violated many of the Eco-reasons the LSD's are using to justify it forced use plus MTBF and Charge times for long trips.

#5 oil industry own estimates place the world Oil reserves at around 32 to 39 years

They have had the same estimate since the 70s. But they keep finding new fields and invent technology that allows them to tap fields that before they couldn't (see fracking and deep sea drilling).

That being said, we are using up a resource that can't be regenerated quickly and do need to figure out how to power cars and cities without oil. We will always need it, but it will go into manufacturing products instead.

#6 There we're predictions in the 1960's that crude oil would be gone in as little as twenty years.

#7 It's hard to make predictions. Especially about the future.

#8 We won’t die when oil is gone, we can still burn all the trees.

#9 Sweden has assisted suicide right? Maybe she should off her good for nothing ass to shave the carbon footprint a little bit.

#12 We were hearing "peak oil" a good 20 years ago. They may not be as bad as gold bugs and silver bugs and uranium bugs, but it was getting "deep" back then. And then fracking came along (o.k., o.k., a few minor earthquakes and some nasty chemicals to facilitate the process along the way, but...).

#13 P.S. - The U.S. has about a 500-year supply of coal, so if you ever wonder why it's so cheap (and also very efficient).

#15 Who is crazier? The teenage Swedish harpy or the people who take her seriously?

Can we start a petition to transition her to a man? Just for the lolz?

#16 #14 - I doubt she can do basic math, Bobby. She's an idiot puppet

#17 The teenage Swedish harpy

At twenty, and belatedly graduated from secondary school, she is no longer a teenager, Angstrom.

#18 The 1.5C “limit” Is a complete fabrication, unsupported by any science.

#19 Basically none of these Greta-Kerry "facts" or supported by science.

I'm still wondering why there is evidence of glacial scarring in NYC's Central Park from 20,000 years ago or so.
