Missy...people have thought for a long time that we're going to run out of natural resources and I don't mean like "Eventually we'll run out of Natural Resouces" but more like "Oh my God we're suddenly and without warning out of natural resources". The time table they set was insane.
...do you really think that simple hydrocarbons similar if not exactly like the hydrocarbons found on lifeless planets come from "fossils".
I do understand "finite" but finite for how many people? For how many years? And how do we know? But I suppose the lefties just simply enjoy a constant state of fear, it gives their government more power, and it keeps the people dedicated to that government for fear of, well everything.

One thing that has been proven by countless scientists (Including Hubert Reeves): by 2030, if we continue to consume this way, we'll need the ressources of 2 planets to produce what we need. The problems around here Lyle are serious and for real, the global weather is 2 degrees higher than what it used to be and when you see the number of industries always growing up in number and rejecting stuff in the atmosphere, it doesn't take a rocket in science to understand that more carbons, less green surfaces in a closed up and finite environment = EVIL

Those videos are a PERFECT example of what I'm trying to get across to you guys. It's been going on forever too! People like to panic others to sell newspapers, get people to watch the news, and vote for their party and I'll even admit that BOTH parties do it. The Left has "they will take away your Social Security!" the Right has "they will take away your guns".....I'm just not going to buy into ever single fucking false pandemic these assholes come up with. I emplore EVERYONE to take a step back and just know, everything will be ok.
Funny thing: these graphics do not consider the good, demographic explosion and other VERY IMPORTANT variables like that. This is what I call a partial analyse... VERY partial.
Here's some read for you, do not consider metals, copper and stuff but more like food and other important things:
Four crucial resources that may run out in your lifetime
Earth 'will expire by 2050' | UK news | The Observer
The Overpopulation Problem: Running Out of Natural Resources
CBBC Newsround | SCI TECH | Earth running out of land and fuel
As a Canadian from a region were wood is widely exploited, I can tell you that even in a large space like us (Quebec itself being 7 times bigger than the whole France), we start to see the impact of over plundering and the demand is always growing bigger, it is very difficult to deny these facts, among other things. Ressources aren't all minerals and demography has to be widely considered in the equation, which is not done properly in the graphics you did expose.

OK Nameless, you feel free to take that stance but people have said that for 100 years and a bet you money that the Earth is still going strong in 2050
