Re: How much longer will we have Gasoline for Our
Very true. A used one is worth more because it’s right there in front of you, ready to drive. A new one is months away on back order. They are everywhere out here and the infrastructure to support them is popping up like weeds.

Re: How much longer will we have Gasoline for Our
The current CO levels are actually 416ppm.
The more we overshoot what natural processes can remove in a given year, the faster the atmospheric concentration of carbon dioxide rises. In the 1960s, the global growth rate of atmospheric carbon dioxide was roughly 0.8± 0.1 ppm per year. Over the next half century, the annual growth rate tripled, reaching 2.4 ppm per year during the 2010s. The annual rate of increase in atmospheric carbon dioxide over the past 60 years is about 100 times faster than previous natural increases, such as those that occurred at the end of the last ice age 11,000-17,000 years ago. |

Re: How much longer will we have Gasoline for Our
Too many folks don't seem to grasp the concept that "science" is based on theory, observation, and educated guesses, that's not the same as "facts"
Archaeology suggests that this planet has been through several ice ages. So one might infer that something other than us "nasty polluters" of the last few decades are the absolute cause of the warming period that has always occurred between the ice ages. One thing you can be sure of, some kind of tax isn't going to fix it.....

Re: How much longer will we have Gasoline for Our
Just gong to post some links, I'm not going into discussion as it is frowned here.
What they say is 2050, but the WEF is setting sights on 2030. https://www.weforum.org/great-reset/ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pwVjlPJTxV8 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FEqIF5GIn3c |

Re: How much longer will we have Gasoline for Our
CO2 is measured in ice cores from Antarctica and glaciers. All water absorbs CO2 every lake and glass of water has CO2 in it not enough to carbonate the water but it reaches an equilibrium with the air . So they can pretty much be certain of co2 levels thousands of years ago .

In fact, Jonathan Amos writes for BBC News, the last time Earth’s atmosphere contained the amount of carbon dioxide present today, Antarctica was a plant-covered oasis, sea levels were an estimated 10 to 20 meters higher, and global temperatures were an average of 2 to 3 degrees Celsius warmer. In the Arctic, summer temperatures were a full 14 degrees higher than they are now." https://www.smithsonianmag.com/smart...een-180971880/ obviously not caused by those pesky gasoline cars....

But I dont think that we will run out of gas or crude oil in my lifetime and maybe not in my children's. But as new technology comes along our reliance on it will be less . But it's got to be a slow process definitely not done in the timeframe some are suggesting . Who knows in 10 years everyone may have a Mr.Fusion on their Delorean.

Re: How much longer will we have Gasoline for Our
Yeah I don't think so. They have been promising fusion power is just around the corner for the last 30 years. We still don't have it even in large scale. No way in 10 years you'll have a reactor in your car!

Going by some peoples logic/panic these days, we had better all stop breathing soon or we’re gonna be dead. I remember them teaching us BS when I was in elementary/jr high school in the early/mid 90’s that by 2015 Florida was gonna be under water. Huh… I’ll be damned. I see that happened… These “climate scientists” don’t know their asses from a hole in the ground. Oil isn’t going anywhere and neither is gasoline for a good long while yet.

Accelo has left the conversation and gone back to Trucks. Which is something we can all agree upon.

Plenty of gas available at this place. Just order the bean burrito. You won't be very popular about an hour later.

Re: How much longer will we have Gasoline for Our
Quote:
Gasoline was "incidentally" discovered during the development and manufacture of Kerosene, which was the go to petroleum fuel in the early days. "Gasoline was initially discarded Edwin Drake dug the first crude oil well in Pennsylvania in 1859 and distilled the oil to produce kerosene for lighting. Although other petroleum products, including gasoline, were also produced in the distillation process, Drake had no use for the gasoline and other products, so he discarded them. It wasn't until 1892, with the invention of the automobile, that gasoline was recognized as a valuable fuel. By 1920, 9 million vehicles powered by gasoline were on the road, and service stations selling gasoline were opening around the country. Today, gasoline is the fuel for nearly all light-duty vehicles in the United States." "Science" tells us that there are two genders...look where that's gone but everyone is entitled to their own opinion.....isn't that how it's SUPPOSED to work?
