I am going to have to disagree with you there. There is a place in Northern Alberta, Canada that is rich with oil. However, it is in the inconvenient form of "Tar Sands" and thus very expensive to extract and process into useable fuel.
Advisors, Economists, Forecasters and other oil experts have predicted that there are HUNDREDS OF YEARS of world supply, just in Northern Alberta. There is more in Southern Alberta. And the rest of Canada. You get my point.
People use the "We are running out of oil" to further their political agenda in one way or another, and have since the 1970's. Ask yourself 'What does the speaker have to gain by making that statement?'
