Yes, the oil will never be cheap, still it is a lot in the ground, but it will cost more and more to take it up. The North See oil was not detected around 1974. It was the oilprice made it possibe to start use it. I think we have to find ways around it. A car can be built to use less, a car do not need to go on petrol.
In Europe you can by a small car with two-cylinders diesel. and just 50 cc motor, it takes easy two persons in 50 km/h and run 40 kilometers on a litre.
(You do not need license, pay no tax on the car.)
As its diesel biodiesel will do. Heavy transport can use alcohol, In Sweden its already 10% alcohol in the fuel, and very few knows about it. We have started to build plants which make alcohol of wood (Ethyl) and many think it will be realistic to use much more, then oil will be pricy. In Europe the as well as in America the farmers produce a surplus, and they would for sure be happy to find a market in producing energy corps.
