How many years worth of water will need to be rendered virtually permanently impotable to extract it?

Leave it there.

Strip it till it's a waste land

.. plus 100 years of oil in the Pacific, California, Wyoming. Alaska artic and gulf of Mexico . Not mention what's in the Atlantic once we start surveying.

If you can put silicone, hydrogen, carbon, oxygen in a machine and print a Prosthetic arm, you will also put H, O, Carbon and additional elements together and “Print” food.....as much as you need. The problem then is you would have too many people on Earth. Mathus will be right

Drill, Baby, Drill. Someone will build a battery someday soon that cost under $2000, hold a charge for 1000 miles, and possibly powered by the sun. If Homo Sapiens beat the Black Death, they will figure out how to survive, through private innovation, not Government mandates.

Talk about artificially inflated numbers! All in ground global fossil fuels run out in 50 years. Just like gold & silver mining ghost towns.

Good thing using all that fossil fuel will end us in 45.

Great so 49 years or so to find the right combination of solar, wind, nuclear power production along with continued increasing efficiency. All while keeping the price of energy affordable! 😉

Good! We might need it by the time left dust settles...

And 49 years of tainted water, and earthquakes.

At what cost to our drinking water and the land that it sits on?

If we are still pumping oil in 49 years, organized human civilization will be on its way out.

Drain it

We'll be on fire by then, but drill baby drill am I right?

Number of missing after California fire dwindles to 49PARADISE, Calif. (AP) — The number of people listed as missing after Northern California's catastrophic wildfire has been whittled to 49. The figure announced Friday night by the Butte County Sheriff's Office shows authorities have made significant progress in accounting for survivors of the deadliest wildfire in state history. Two weeks ago, the number of people listed as unaccounted for was 1,300. You cannot whittle down deaths of people you can say the number of individuals who died as the result of the wildfires. Not whittled down these individuals where not a piece wood that you take a knife to and whittle. Please be more sensitive to those individuals their families. Whittled down? Because wood can be whittled and the fire burned down trees. Bad choice of word. Number of confirmed dead?
