3.80 / 5.00 4,200 Viewsin yhe year 2020 we will lose oil. i got this from searching "when will we lose oil?" on google. and the future is.... well you got the idea. and anyway if we dont lose oil then in about 60 years global warming will come! the tim to act so we can live is now! who agrees with me?
Cheating? I like to call it strategic opportunity.
There are natural landmarks in the world where more methain, more carbon dioxide, more sulfur dyoxide, is made than every single car, factory, applicance, etc. in the world, combine. If global warming occurs it wont be of our doing.
We're not running out of crude oil any time soon if that's what your sugjesting, we're just low on refined oil.
50 years ago you could stand in the streets and yell the apocalypes is comming 20 times and you would get sent to a madhouse. Now liberals claim that it's going to happen and they get payed millions of dollars to make speaches in colleges XD
To tell you the truth, even if we loose ALL of our gas tommorrow, the 'apocolypse' wont come. People will have to learn to change their life styles and mayby learn how to get to places the old fassioned way. Every generation think that the end of the world is in their generation, it makes them feel special. But to tell you the truth it is extremely unlikely for the ENTIRE human race to be destroyed. Theres billions of us for heavens sake!
it would take a very large amount of chemical explosives :D lets get to work!
It is my honest opinion that we dont even have 100 years we're going to run ourselves into extinctionsomehow
No matter what you do ,or what anyone else does.
You are going to DIE!
So am I.
So is everyone else.
Running around like a chicken with your head chopped off ,gains you nothing.
If making ,what in your opinion, are positive changes knock yourself out.
The alarmist attitude is really getting old.
So stop worrying and be Happy :-) -at least until your dead.
Those who have only the religious opinions of others in their head & worship them. Have no room for their own thoughts & no room to contemplate anyone elses ideas either-More
Um, we're going to die in 2012, everybody knows that! Sheesh!
Losing oil won't lead to the apocALYpse buddy, it will just lead to us needing an alternative energy source of which we have dozens of options. Hydrogen , Ethanol, Coal, you name it, these are all effective energy sources.
Also, Global Warming (if it exists) won't lead to the end of the world. It will lead to us being hotter. It would take thousands of years for Global Warming to take a deadly effect as the temperature rises a single degree average only about every 5 years or so. In 60 years, that would be 12 degrees. I think we can handle 12 extra degrees.
And that's IF Global Warming is an actual problem and hasn't been taken care of by then. A lot can happen in 60 years buddy.
Let us embrace the hydrogen combustion engine

I would love to see your source on this. Every source I've ever read on this shows that while there is a lot of the greenhouse gases released naturally, way more is produced by the people. Personally, I see global warming as a natural process, but the human race is greatly increasing the speed which this happens, before the inhabitats of the planet can adjust which can cause very negative side effects.

You have sources on this?
Global Warming is not as bad as the media portrays it. Granted, it does exist, but the end of the world will not be brought about by it. The earth has been going through many similar climate changes throughout its history, mostly due to the periodic comings of ice ages. So global warming may possibly be contributing to the steady rise in average global temperature, but not as much as naturally ocurring cycles are.
As for the "apocalypse", no it is not coming. Worst case scenario, if we do run out of oil within the first half of this century, we will be forced to adopt nuclear energy, which is more than enough to sustain all of our electrical needs. The only reason nuclear energy is not currently being used more commonly is mostly due to the stigma from Chernobyl (It would be impossible for a disaster similar to Chernobyl to happen in the US anyway) and the fear that terrorists will somehow blow up nuclear plants, both of which are unlikely scenarios. Hydro and Solar power will also be used as replacements. Probably the biggest hit would be a great reduction in the use of combustion engine cars, which in the end isnt such a bad thing anyway.
iWe do know evanually the world is going to end, all religions proficise the coming of the apocolipse, we know evanually the world will come to an end, either through natural or atrifical condions. What we must remember is that we don't go potty all the time thinking about it. If you are worried about it stock up on provisions, ge yourself sorted. If you think you want to tell your freinds, think about then say. However, don't be like others who blabber on and on about it, if soemone listens and the don't accept your point of view leave it. I you think you are right, leave it at that.
Do you believe everything on "google?" Moron...
I doubt someone who can't even spell 'apocolypse' knows when the end days shall come. Especially when their source is a search engine.

I doubt someone who can't even spell "apocalypse" should point out the fact that someone can't spell "apocalypse".

Right, good proof there.....
And for those atheists who don't hold religious text in such high regard as evidence?
There is no real way of knowing anything about whether our race will exist forever, or we'll end up like the dinosaurs, and any say to the contrary is un-provable.
Yes, as humans we have an odd view that one day our world will end, but it wasn't always like this....
Some Romans thought their empire would never fall, and the culture of the Romans would exist forever....
Well, so far, they got 1 of 2 right, and if you think about it in some more radical ways, they got em both right. There are ways of arguing that the Roman Empire never fell and still exists, I've done it in papers and have been told some historians are trying to think in terms of evolutionary empires, instead of extinction. In other words, even if a culture was conquered and destroyed, elements of it live on in the conquerors, and therefore, that culture lives forever....
Some interesting views to say the least.....

why do you all just die then if we all are going to die by the year 2020 we will have cleaner hydrogen fuel cells and that also affects global warming and poisons now shut up
Actually I have done some research on this in the past. That figure is very subjective and from my research kind of inaccurate. But that aside, running out of oil (or better have to conserve it because we're running low) would probably be a good thing because then manufacturers and scientist would be more inclined to research and produce alternatate forms of energy and technology compatible with it, and the shortage would cause consumers and investors to put more into it. Which, my friend (which is to say person I've never met) is the opposite of the apocalypse and is rather progress.
Honestly I find it hard to believe that the earth could exist forever. Too many factors (such as the lifespan of the sun to name one off the top of my head) condusive to the sustaining of life upon our planet have been pretty much proven to not be indefinite. But this is irrelevent to the original, "quasi" silly topic.

Are you one of those people who prepared for the end of the world in 1999.
Must have been a real disappointment,the year 2000 arrives ,and everything kept right on going.
At least by picking the year 2020 you have 15 years to rant and rave.
Hope you enjoy yourself.
hope to hear from you in the summer of 2021.
You can pick a new date ,and try again

well its good we are loosing oil by then, although that some people think we will run into trouble etc etc, they fail to understand alot of reasearch is taking place at the moment into allternative energy and such, which i think given 15 years to develop is alot of time so i worry not

Great yet another apocalypse theory that ISN'T GOING TO HAPPEN. You are a goddamn idiot. Plain and simple, you are a moron and you should never be in charge of a motor vehicle. In fact people like you should not be in charge of anything other than a toilet...Although that may be too complicated for you and you might cause some kind of apocalyptic sewage backup!! Fucking loon...
If we ran out of oil tommorow, you might be right. I even think you probably are.
However, even you admit we have another 15 years to find another source of energy, (My guess is that we would somehow harness human stupidity) so I think your whole topic is self-defeating
Well there's not going to be an oil shortage in 2020 because we've run out of oil.
There might be an oil shortage in 2020 because there won't be enough supply to meet demand. Especially if Economies like China's keep growing like they currently are.
We actually already have a small oil shortage. The crude oil price has risen signifacantly.
In about 15 years the shortage will evem larger if we don't do something now.
Off course it will not directly result in an apocalypse of biblical proportions. Though I do think it might result in a "crisis".
Though an energy crisis like this could be something to spark WWIII, which definately could result in something closer to a biblical apocalypse.
Something like this was concluded from the last energy convention.
Though if the Chicken plague would really hit us hard, like the spanish flu. We might be "saved" from an oil crisis. Not that a plague is really much better.
------------------------
Anyhow, about ramping up crude oil production...
It's just extending the time we have to come up with new energy recources. Maybe it will be another 100 years before we finally really begin to run out of oil.
Thing is, I don't think we will have really done anything by that time to stop it. We've been making plans to stop this from happening from back to the seventies. It's like this parachute joke:
A guy jumps off a plane for a parachute dive. He's 10.000 feet above the ground. When he approaches 1000 feet, he's thinking. "Meh, I can wait before I pull the cord."
When he's a 100 feet, he's still thinking: "Meh, I can wait."
When he's at 25 feet, he's still thinking: "Meh, I can wait."
When he's at 5 feet, he thinks: "Meh, I can jump that last bit myself."
But emm okay by 100 years we will all be dead. So who cares? Well it's a moral issue really. Is it fair to your children or your childrens children?
Though I could definately imagine some people saying good riddance of this luxury lifestyle we're having. Back to before the industrial age? Who cares?
Anyhow it might be futile anyhow. Oil shortage isn't the only threat to society as we know it..
Ok maybe not back to the pre-industrial age, but back to the twenties/fifties.
Still quite a step back imho. (in technology and luxery that is)

there isnt one.
even if we do run out, something will be found to replace it. necessity is the mother of all invention as they say. already there are millions of dollars being pumped into research for alternative fuels and they get more efficient all the time. i for one am not worried about this impending doom
My god you people have no idea what you are talking about when you post first of all oil will not be finished by 2020 and global warming isnt small but we wont have a apocolypse cause of it most of the difference in heat now is just cause of changes in the world its like a cycle wich has been going since the start we have had many ice ages.You must know humans have only been a part of this planet for blink of its life i think if the world was one day the humans would of like 20 seconds of it or less.
As i cant editor dont know how im just gonna post again even if the oil supplies run out wich they wont for hundreds of years plus there is constantly appearing new oil and coal as it is just from rotten trees and plants and animals ect. And we are exploring new ways like hydrogen wich is becoming big now like where i live in iceland we are always stepping one step further in securing our nature now a few of our busses run on hydrogen.
