Heh, the only numbers that scientists give are calculated with known and expected discoveries. New discoveries wouldn't constitute a mistake, it'd just mean different playing fields. A mistake would be forgetting to carry the 1.dayarath wrote:
It's correct if we manage to reach the oil fields we couldn't so far, we've only drilled through a fraction of the crust of this earth. I'm sure there is ALOT more oil down there than we think.mikkel wrote:

Actually scientists just said not to long ago that they made a mistake on how much oil is left. They now say we have enough for the next 140 years at current consumption. Sorry I have no link to back this up as I heard it on the news & can't be bothered to look for it now.
If I find it later I'll post it unless someone wants to beat me to it.
they should try use the oil instead of bringing it down to the ocean
There's a book somewhere in my library called "How to Lie With Charts."
Interesting.

More resource wars...I don't think any sort of apocolypse will happen, as its simply not profitable.

Your thoughts, insights, and musings on this matter intrigue me
It`s not only the cars that cant run without oil.There will be no more plastic(made of oil)and nearly no more medicine!
It is most likely we will grow all of our oil. It has already started with us growing corn to produce ethanol for cars. It is hoped that gm modified crops can be used to produce the different oils that we need for plastics and other uses.
