When Will we ever run out?
The Western Journal (5/13/24) reports: "When are we going to run out of energy? You don’t hear that as much as you used to, since Those Who Know Best are working to plug up all our energy sources anyway... We should have 227 years of available oil, 130 years of gas, and almost 500 years of coal. Those are predictions from the Institute for Energy Research, an energy-focused think tank based upon free market principles. Chicken Little predictions of energy depletion are a ruse to push for alternatives, IER President Tom Pyle told Just the News. 'First, they said, we don’t have the resources. We’re big consumers, but we don’t have the energy. So we have to get off of the resource,’ according to Pyle. 'Then it became evident and clear that that was not the case,' he said. In 2023, the U.S. was the biggest energy producer in the world, putting out 13 million barrels of oil per day. And that’s even after the Biden regime throttled production early in 2021."
