Unknown scenario

Does it matter?

The answer depends on when plus other things.

 

[Jimmy]

We will step away from needing crude oil, so neither.

Renewables are getting cheaper and more efficient by the day.

Synthetic oil is just as/more efficient than the regular stuff to.

Wonder how long cuz we haven’t gotten there yet. Prolly after we run out of oil unfortunately

Renewables depend upon complicated manufacturing techniques. People cannot make them at home or go over to the next town. They require factories, so its possible that something will stop them from being made.

Don't be terse.

Don't be terse.

I understand you don’t want to answer
It’s a complicated subject

 

[Jimmy]

Given dropping prices for renewables and technical developments, it will be cheaper than petroleum. And we also have fusion reactors starting to look technically feasible in the intermediate future.

Sweet
Hope it works out

 

[Jimmy]

They'll probably hoard it, and others will look for ways to try to get it.

That sounds bleak

I'm worried about the current drive for deep water drilling and Fracking.

I hear ya

Maybe its an incomplete question.

Nailed it!

True, but that's why I am hoping manufacturing efficiency is cheapened and streamlined so as to be affordable for the consumer.

Fusion and fission are probably unlikely
