    Without oil, you're naked, hungry, and homeless. How about every structure building materials are trucked, logged, water, sewer, power lines take oil to install and maintain. Roads are made with asphalt, petroleum, trucked and built by oil ran equipment.

      roads can be dirt or concrete - like freeways, trucks are becoming electrified ! For now we will need some oil related products but just because those we use a lot of them doesn't mean they can't be replaced with non-oil products. All these oil uses and products will be of little use if your coasts are flooded and you're baking in higher and higher temps. Geez y'all are stupid !

      Diesel semi tires are made from petroleum products. Most of our transportation in fact needs oil. Even items not made of plastic were produced in factories that use petroleum products.

      @@antibureaucrat The "Geez y'all are stupid" comment lets us know where you are. You are assuming what you are being told is true. And if it were true, then we should be worried. BUT, what if it is not? What if the only slightly warmer temperatures and higher CO2s just promoted more plant growth, and not rising sea levels and "baking" temps? Here is one courtesy example that you might be intentionally lied to about: In the 30s, in the USA, we had the highest temperatures for a few years. It has never been that hot since. Remember? The "Dust Bowl"? CO2 levels were 20% lower back then. Yet you are being told we will "bake" some day because if we don't reduce our CO2 output. We are being lied to. One day, we'll act like we didn't really believe it. But we know we did...and impoverished ourselves and promoted the impoverishing.

      It has been an example what not to do for a long time now. That's why people are leaving California at a rate which declines it's population instead of grows it. The problem with this hoever is that they move to places that aren't like California and then vote for and support the same stupidity that led to them wanting to leave California. It's like a cancer that spreads. WE DON'T WANT THEIR CANCER!!

    Problem is we simply burn almost all of it rather than producing goods and structures like this ad suggests. If oil was used primarily to produce products instead of just burning it this ad would be largely moot for hundreds of more years. We needed to solve the oil dependancy for transport and heating problems first before anything else, which largely just burns it all.

    All this video shows is that A: We can't cut off oil immediately without serious ramifications; and B: The world currently relies on natural gas for a lot of things.
    The world does not have infinite oil, and the supply is very low in many countries. Less access to oil in your own country means more spending on importing it from foreign countries. Look at the war in Afghanistan, nearly 200,000 deaths because of a conflict largely elicited by oil.
    What we need to do, in order to preserve the use of oil in SOME instances, is to eliminate the major uses in areas that we CAN efficiently remove them. EVs outperform gas vehicles in every measure. Electronic equipment and tools do as well. Gas barbeques are already outdates, a lot of people use electric barbeques, oven/stovetops, many tools are electric because it's more efficient, safer for users, and being better for the environment is just an added bonus. I'm not sure how the apparel industry couldn't exist without oil. Perhaps the equipment used to make the clothes are petro-based, but that doesn't mean they can't be replaced over time with more efficient electric-powered machinery.
    The idea that we need oil because we currently use it is completely baseless and irrelevant. Yes we do use oil, that is why we are trying to transition out of it. It's common sense, really. We can't survive on oil forever, it will disappear. We need to ease the transition out of oil use so that when we do run out, it's not a global catastrophe for half of the industries. We NEED to use renewable energy, because it is our only source of energy that will not run out. With all the information and facts out there today, I can't comprehend how people can justify not knowing how close we actually are to running out of oil. It may not happen in the next 20 years, but it's happening extremely fast.

      "EVs outperform gas vehicles in every measure". 🤣 You sure about that? I have a buddy with a $100000 GM EV pickup truck and he gets pretty scared when asked to say, haul a boat out to the lake (he's already been stranded in the middle of nowhere a couple times when he ran out of juice on the prairies despite spending hours "refilling" at a couple places along the way). Also, EVs pollute more ultimately than gas vehicles, and are terrible here in the prairie winter. In addition to the added pollution from tires and break pads due to the weight, EVs are still ultimately powered by oil and gas in most places. Just because you can't see it coming out of your car, it's still true. And when it comes to safety, EVs are actually less safe (bombs on wheels) compared to gas vehicles. A fire in an EV caused by the battery is actually far more dangerous than the much more rare fire in a gas car.
