No doubt it is also within those pages that you saw cavemen riding dinosaurs. [img]https://ec.yimg.com/ec?url=https%3A%2F% ... 0sgLfA--~D[/img]  I recall the same "scientists" around 1975 telling all that would listen about how the world would pump its last drop of oil out of the ground by 2015 at the latest.    That fringe theory is called "peak oil."  Peak oil has been around for over a century, claiming all the time the people of Earth were on the verge of global war, fighting for the last drops of oil. [img]https://ec.yimg.com/ec?url=https%3A%2F% ...

This article should explain everything to you.  https://www. nationalgeographic.org/ encyclopedia/petroleum/ Tim
