Interesting, US oil production hit a new all-time Record under Biden , reaching 12.9 million barrels a day in 2023. ( 4,708, 500,000 barrels a year )..I made a mistake earlier at that rate of when we runout of oil. At current rate , but it will no doubt increas , we will run out in 60 to 70 years.
Why "drill baby, drill" has a direct affect on all our lives!

The perplexing observation of a few of you is that you've ignored the primary thesis of my comment!
You believe in as Biden said.."rid fossil fuels"... then how will you brush your teeth? What will your credit cards be made from? You put antifreeze in your car... what will replace it? Laundry detergent? Tires? How many of you are aware that every year..."It takes about seven gallons of oil to make a standard passenger or light-truck tire"
www.tiremart.com
In 2024 there were according to Tire Manufacturers Association (USTMA) projects that the number of tires produced will increase to 335.7 million tires... 42,725,454 barrels of oil every year!
Economic Impact
NOW do you uninformed people understand why "drill baby drill" is important? What will the tires be made from?
Asphalt you drive on made from oil.The United States produces around 400 to 500 million tons of asphalt annually.
around 210 gallons of oil per ton of asphalt; or 1,718,181,818 barrels of oil!

Really? The talk radio right has always sung off the Big Oil sheet music and opposed renewables.
The antiquated notions and idiotic ridicule are no different now than they were 30 years ago.

NOT one shred of proof from you! Why do you people THINK I'll believe YOUR comments???
Prove your statement a PEAK is expected around 2030??
FACTS buddy! 56 years! not 5!!!
Ranking nations by the most likely estimate for existing fields, discoveries and as-of-yet undiscovered fields (proved, probable. possible and undiscovered),
the United States is at the top of the list with 264 billion barrels of recoverable oil reserves,
followed by Russia with 256 billion,
Saudi Arabia with 212 billion,
Canada with 167 billion,
Iran with 143 billion, and
Brazil with 120 billion (Table 1)
U.S. Holds Most Recoverable Oil Reserves
Thanks to unconventional resources, the United States is ahead of both Russia and Saudi Arabia in Rystad Energy’s latest estimate of global oil reserves.
www.aogr.com
Annual usage by USA:
U.S. oil production 2023 | Statista
Oil production in the United States amounted to around 827.1 million metric tons in 2023, an increase when compared to the previous year and the highest figure recorded within the period of consideration.
www.statista.com
264 billion barrels divided by 4.7 billion barrels per year equals 56 years!

Nope. Renewable research will continue and nobody opposes it.

I am not interested in a discussion regarding proven oil reserves.
Oil, like all fossil fuels, is a finite commodity with high waste and global climate impact. (tdon’t bother denying it. Big Oil new it in the 1980’s. Even though they sponsored campaigns to lie to uyou about it.)
Exxon scientists predicted global warming with 'shocking skill and accuracy,' Harvard researchers say
In the study, scientists showed how the multinational energy giant worked to cloud the issue.

HERE are The FACTS!
Not your guesses!!!:
According to estimates, if all cars were electric vehicles, the US would need to produce an additional 20-50% more electricity annually, meaning a significant increase in power generation is required to fully support EV adoption across the country; a typical EV consumes around 3,857 kilowatt-hours (kWh) of electricity per year, which is roughly equivalent to the average American's annual driving distance.
How much electricity would it take to power all cars if they were electric? | USAFacts
The US would need to produce 20-50% more electricity annually if all cars were electric vehicles.
usafacts.org
And if Biden's "guarantee to rid fossil fuels"
it would mean that 60% of all electricity generated in the USA by fossil fuels today... or of the 4.1 Trillion kWh generated,
more than half of the electricity generated would have to be replaced.
According to the U.S. Energy Information Administration, in 2023, the United States generated approximately 4,178 billion kilowatt-hours (kWh) of electricity at utility-scale facilities, or 4.18 trillion kWh.
Between EV consumption of an additional 2.09 Trillion kWh and
Biden's guarantee of getting rid over 2.4 Trillion kWh by fossil fuels...
that's the equivalent of what is generated today or another 4.5 Trillion kWh will be needed to replace fossil fuels and
EVs consumption!
Where will the money come from to build the average nuclear power plant generates around 8 billion kWh?
INFOGRAPHIC: How Much Power Does A Nuclear Reactor Produce?
A typical nuclear reactor produces 1 gigawatt of power per plant on average. Just how much power is that exactly?
The average 8 billion kWh nuclear power plant or 583 nuclear power plants at a cost of ...
According to current estimates, building a new nuclear power plant can cost between $5 billion and $10 billion per unit.
So using the average of $7.5 billion X 583 new nuclear power plants to meet demand or a total of
$4,218,750,000,000 where will that come from?

Guess? What guess? I documented my claim.
Your rebuttal doesn’t change anything.
I fully expect half of the electric generating capaiccity to be replaced. And, I expect the current trend, in which 100% of the investment in new capacity is invested in renewables, will continue.

Indeed, your alarmist goings on about how much power will be needed does not change with different power sources. Indeed, you did not even mention data farms.
I have little doubt that the current trend in electric power generation will continue, For the last two years 100% of the investment capital in electric power generation has been in renewables and battery farms.
They are the cheaper and more reliable and responsive alternative.
Moreover, I also predict that in the future people will look back on us as energy starved, limited by the ineffencies of steam and internal combustion. Knowing that, and the high cost in climate impact and pollution, they’ll wonder why people argued against it.
