[QUOTE="nofearfactor, post: 2868817, member: 1535"] Even if every person on the planet eventually at some point ditched their gasoline powered vehicles in favor of electric cars, and or trucks, etc- there will always be a need for the petroleum and fossil fuels industries. Gasoline is only one of the many products derived from petroleum. We consume petroleum products at a rate of three-and-a-half gallons of oil and more than 250 cubic feet of natural gas per day each. [SIZE=3][B]One 42-gallon barrel of oil creates 19.4 gallons of gasoline.
