I hate to be the one coming up with all the topics, but this world is too interesting to not talk about.
On 20/20 (i think) there was a special on myth that a guy does every other month or so. one of the myths was, "WERE RUNNING OUT OF OIL!!!"
They said thats not true, and that we're simply running out of cheap oil, which is fairly clean and easy to find.
The expense oil is found mixed in with dirt. The expensive part is separating it from the dirt with water or blah blah blah. One guy said that a small part of canada had enough oil for the WORLD to use for a 100 YEARS!
The reason why nobody was tapping these vast plains of oil is because it wasn't profitable, but as the price keeps rising it will be. Some people have already started. So the price might be 4 or five dollars (US) per gallon after the large cheap reserves dry up but atleast we'll still have oil.
PS
I'm not "pro-oil", and I think we should stop using the shit fast!
