    I don’t know what the numbers are at this point, but there is only so much crude oil available on Earth.

    Once it’s gone, it’s gone, unless there are a few million dinosaurs hanging out somewhere we don’t know about.

    Yes, oil is used in creating electricity, but there are alternative, cleaner means to do so.

    Depending on the source used, the current proven reserves are enough, to last at the current consumption rate, for between 47 and 70 years. Exploration is still finding new oil deposits. Research is also finding new like bio-diesel that should be able to keep our heavy ground transportation systems running.

    Now they need to concentrate on the one of the largest users of fossil fuels, the aviation industry.

    That’s a long time, but another way to look at it is that we will be “out of gas” in our kids’, or at best, our grandkids’ lifetimes.

    Knowing that at best there is only 70 years of oil left, why are Republicans so resistant to new sources of energy? It doesn't make sense to me.

    ... they are like petulant teenagers who cannot get their way even if it is a good idea and they know it is.

    EVs are not for everyone but great for others. Using examples such as towing a trailer ,which most people will never do, does not preclude the value of EVs.
