Those who don’t believe climate change is man-made, what happens when we run out of fossil fuels?

I understand your position is that pollution doesn’t significantly hurt either the environment or people’s health, and that clean energy will hurt the economy or in some way reward lazy people; however, you don’t deny, do you, that fossil fuels are a non-renewable resource? Or that we are rapidly running out of them? So, I mean, isn’t renewable energy inevitable? So mightn’t we just as well go ahead and make the transition now since it’s going to have to happen anyway? Just something I was wondering about at work this afternoon.

We will run out of fossil fuels. That's just a fact. It is also a fact that lobby groups and big oil and gas are not going to allow us to re-tool infrastructure to electric transportation re-charging stations until they are good and done and don't have anything left to sell.

It is also true that Germany has gone over to their new climate change plan and they are not in the negative as one would expect. I'm not sure why. I heard it on the news and didn't follow up with my own research.

Greenhouse gas emissions from China account for 25.9% of all the world's emissions, so they really need to get their act together over there. I can't find any articles with recent data. Everything is from 2017, 2015 and 2014.

@4meAndyou Where is all the electricity coming from to recharge all those electric cars?

@sunsporter1649 We really need to get our s#it together on that one. You know the radical left will not allow more nuclear plants. We are going to have to litter the ocean with windmills, and utilize every scrap of the force of every waterfall in the nation, pave the deserts with solar panels, and put all of our illegal immigrants on bicycles hooked up to batteries.
