Serious Will the global industrial civilization collapse when we run out of oil?

[persona non grata]

I'm down this rabbit hole again.

Most of you know that nearly everything we can see and touch is made of oil and that we are running out of it as well as fossil fuels, gas, and other major resources on which the global industrial civilization is dependent.

Here comes the big question: not if, but when these resources become very scarce, how can this civilization keep itself going? They talk about alternative sources of energy like green energy, but they haven't made so quick a progress to replace oil energy.

If we don't find a viable alternative source of energy in time, the global industrial civilization is doomed and our standards of living will go back to that of the 19th century. Billions of people will die and living in farms/rural areas will be the best way of surving because of the independent, off-grid lifestyle in places like these.

We can't run out of oil. Fossil fuel is a myth those resources are not made out of dinosaur carcasses but get created constantly through earth's chemical reactions.

Nuclear power exists so no

I hope you guys are right. I don't want civilization to collapse entirely.

We won't ever run out of oil.
Mark my words.

Ever heard of abiotic oil? Read about it.
The scarcity of oil is a lie to inflate the prices for it and keep people in constant fear.

 

[Allah (Real)]

we have the technology for a post-oil/coal world.
civilization won't collapse in that way, but we will be fucked for a good bit due to climate change and such.

 

[AtrociousCitizen]

Only if we don't transition to other forms of energy correctly.

See? That's why I fucking love this forum. Quick and informative answers from smart users, answers that I wouldn't find in any other place that quickly. I love you all (no homo)!

There is a book, which was published on this topic, by a finish or swedish scientist. Not sure.
He writes about abiotic oil and has proof for it, apparently.
It looks like crude oil is produced by some kind of bacteria.

If anything, we could pump the reservoirs empty faster than the bacteria can reproduce it, I assume, but it would still be reproduced.

Now, as for population / overpopulatioon, that as well seems to be a lie / exaggeration.
In fact there are theories that the world's population isn't even counted correctly intentionally, to make us believe that we are that many.

Still, I am all for developing energy efficient engines and such.

Currently reading about it. Amazing information. Shocking but not surprising, knowing the (((elites))).

There are reports of oil lakes in Titan the biggest of saturn's moons and large untapped reserves of oil in the seas and oceans of earth which are yet to be surveyed and studied.So no i dont think mankind will ever run out of oil

Glad you are questioning "our reality".

 

[starcrapoo]

we could just use nuclear energy

but imagine a world where nuclear waste is plentiful lol

terrorists would make dirty bombs
