Usually in our daily lives we do not realize, but dependence on oil we have is such that the day runs could lead to economic collapse in court I would say apocalyptic. The fact is that since I was little I hear that old story that the oil will depend on it acabar.Tanto that we could substitute "the world is going to end, I mean of course the developed world.
Not that there is no alternative energy, there are. In fact the big companies the automotive industry are already moving on to form hydrogen cars, electric cars, hybrids. For example in the case of hydrogen cars are zero emissions as the exhaust pipe just pull water vapor. The problem is that the combustion engine is still cheap and profitable. While oil continues to be sold so there will be problems.
seems that only when the oil unmistakable signs of exhaustion then we will replace it systematically. Will we make the transition smoothly? , How much time is left?, How much oil is left?
is not a substance that regenerates very quickly, as we know it is configured with organic matter for thousands of years, so the futuristic world of prehistoric creatures move today what we have left their legacy transformed into energy.
say that there is still enough black gold, Alaska and the South China Sea are a mine and there is much in the deep ocean. Surely the OPEC (organization of petroleum exporting countries) they know better than us.
But oil is not only moving cars, but is present in almost everything we have every day by hand, such as plastics, acrylics, rubber, shoes. And what about air traffic, which is built increasingly larger aircraft such as Airbus, that sucks tons of the precious element.
If a volcano can erupt with panic throughout Europe for traffic disruption at airports for days, what would the world if the oil runs out?, Did everything it could be like without airplanes? . It seems that airlines are paying too much attention to the possibility that one day may not have fuel.
So what happens to us?. We loved rations, we are unable to respond to a catastrophe. When there is money involved deplete resources without mercy. We will learn very quickly and invent new ways to see what drives us away.
is the case with what happened in Easter Island, where islanders prospered until they exhausted all the resources of the island. The trees disappeared giving way to erosion resulting from deforestation. Civilization disappeared without a trace. And most disturbing of all is that they realized that they were self-destructing. Could repeat the same scale without a doubt.
The inventions are on the table, just have to implement them, see if we can win the battle against our impulse to exhaust the natural resources we change unharmed.
