AS, you're spouting off a whole lot of stuff based more on political agenda than facts, IMO.
We are stuck with the need for oil for a long time. In case you didn't know, it's used for a lot more than just making automobiles move. As for 40 years projected oil left. I think they said that back in the 1930's too. With new technologies, a lot more oil is recoverable now than it used to be. Old oil wells would only get about 20% of the oil under the ground, with 80% being left there. Now, that there are secondary and tertiary recovery methods, a lot more can be produced.
Also, as for drilling EVERY wilderness area, that's one of the stupidest things I've heard. Without geological evidence of oil and/or gas deposits, there is no point in drilling anywhere.
I don't see where exactly you give us an alternative to fossil fuels. What alternatives are there that are economically viable without a bunch of taxpayer money(that's my money) being wasted?
