    At the current rate of consumption, oil will run out in our lifetime or that of our next generation. When oil becomes unavailable, it rises. Rising oil prices will affect everything that uses or utilizes petroleum, from plastics, to oil-powered farm machinery, to food delivered by petroleum-powered trucks and trains.

    Like the oil crisis of the early years, the surge in oil prices will create an economic crisis, deepen the gap between rich and poor, and put pressure on the social fabric of countries around the world. Some futurists** believe that there will be "oil wars" and global conflicts (which have already happened) in the struggle for resources. Many historians believe that if Hitler had found unlimited oil in Germany, he might well have succeeded in conquering Europe.

    Historical data show that the main reason why Japan bombed Pearl Harbor was because the US fleet blockaded the waters west of Japan and blocked the supply of oil from the Indian Ocean countries. American strategists knew that such a move would force the "solar empire" to bend its knees, but the United States apparently underestimated how angry Japan would be to take revenge. Regardless of how the oil shortage will affect the world, one thing is certain:

    People will be forced to use less oil. So in the next 10 or 20 years, when the world's oil wells start to dry up, or when oil countries decide to keep their remaining reserves, rising oil prices will force consumers into a less oil-dependent lifestyle. So we have to use the resources we have to develop renewable energy while we still have the opportunity.

    The world is very big, oh hehe, but if we human beings exploit resources excessively and do not know how to save, the resources will definitely be exhausted one day, although some resources can be born, but the regeneration time is much longer than the time of human exploitation. But don't worry, hehe, when we are here, the resources will not be exhausted, and as for what will happen in the future, I believe that the science at that time is something we can't imagine now.

    When resources run out, people will think of new energy sources instead.

    There is no standard answer to this question, and different researchers and people have different arguments, and in general, they can be divided into two categories: optimists and pessimists. Many of the pessimists are already known to have the idea that there are only enough oil reserves for another 50 years, and that when the oil reserves are depleted in 50 years, humanity will face a crisis. Optimists first said that there is no need to worry about this trace, and when a certain resource is exhausted, human beings will develop new alternative resources.

    What's more, now a new theory has come out, that oil is not formed by the deposition of ancient animal remains, but is a substance of the earth itself, and its storage is far greater than the current amount, which can be exploited and buried for a long time. In addition, the melting of glaciers caused by the greenhouse effect has long been thought to bring unprecedented disasters to mankind, but now that the glaciers in the Arctic Ocean continue to melt, it seems that there is no human concern for disasters, and the countries concerned are busy competing for a new waterway formed by the melting of glaciers in the Arctic Ocean.

    Therefore, on the one hand, human beings should have a sense of distress, and must not be unscrupulous and do whatever they want in the face of nature, but must exercise restraint and take precautions. On the other hand, we do not need to be too pessimistic and unfounded, we should learn to turn the crisis as an opportunity to find a new way out when the crisis comes.

    The question goes like this. The consumption of resources is synchronized. How do you know that it is the West that runs out first?

    It won't be China? The competition in the future is mainly the competition of business. At a certain stage, it is difficult to make any more money.

    People will use force. It's that simple! It's like two businessmen killing each other because of jealousy.

Buddhism does not believe in ghosts and gods, but believes in the existence of ghosts and gods, the Buddha said that color is emptiness, emptiness is color, in fact, it is the (cognition) of life, the six realms of sentient beings (cognition) generated the six realms of sentient beings (phase) that is, the world, if there is no delusion, it will be liberated from the six realms, so the Buddha said that ghosts and gods do not exist, but there is indeed a world of ghosts and gods, this is not a contradiction, you think about it carefully, if there is a Buddha fate can understand.
