I remember seeing graphs like this in books copy righted in the 1970s and 80 that said we should have ran out of just everything by now.
Natural gas was supposed to have run out in the late 90s, oil should be running out right about now, all precious industrial metals gone in the 2000s. But coal should last like 300 years.
So burn coal I guess.
Oh and the polar ice caps were supposed to be long gone by 2010.
