How long before oil runs out. Have we given ourselves enough time to adjust without a global crisis?

Eg is it going to be possible replace all motor vehicles and planes with alternative energy power.How long before oil runs out. Have we given ourselves enough time to adjust without a global crisis?
Well I would say about 100-200 years before it runs out. But it will become very expensive before then and of course we will get replacements. NECESSITY IS THE MOTHER OF INVENTION. If we don't then we will just go back to the stone age!!How long before oil runs out. Have we given ourselves enough time to adjust without a global crisis?
We probably have another 30 years of oil, but we are passed peak oil. With China and India requiring more oil we will be in a crisis long before it's gone.
Every expert will give you a different answer about oil supplies. The funny thing is, to some extent their all right. As production tecniques improve, more oil is accessible.


The developed world will propably adjust as oil supplies run out. People will have to adjust their lifestyles, but we've done that before.


The developing world will be in for some hard times.
The world was going strong ;long before the demand for oil.
We have probably reached the Oil Production peak. From now onward. we will have declining hydrocarbon production. - At present rates of consumption and population growth, we probably have about 35-50 years..
Be interesting what happens to the Middle East when the oil runs out. I think answers will be found to the energy problem, some already exist if conspiricy theories are correct then we might already have the answers.
