LONDON, England -- Global warming will never bring a "doomsday scenario" a team of scientists says -- because oil and gas are running out much faster than thought.

The world's oil reserves are up to 80 percent less than predicted, a team from Sweden's University of Uppsala says. Production levels will peak in about 10 years' time, they say.

"Non-fossil fuels must come in much stronger than it had been hoped," Professor Kjell Alekett told CNN.

Oil production levels will hit their maximum soon after 2010 with gas supplies peaking not long afterwards, the Swedish geologists say.

At that point prices for petrol and other fuels will reach disastrous levels. Earlier studies have predicted oil supplies will not start falling until 2050.

Alekett said that his team had examined data on oil and gas reserves from all over the world and we were "facing a very critical situation globally."

Fuck it. I'm going out for buffet, tato skins chips, and frozen yogurt... or frozen ice cream. Fuck relationships, fuck ideals, fuck the future. Hell, as I can't even get a fuck I'll just eat. Nah nah nyah-nyah nah! :P

1. Possibility of Peak Oil being imminent = good reason to conserve energy

and find alternatives STAT.

Possibility of Global Warming being real = good reason to conserve energy and find alternatives STAT.

What the hell are we waiting for???

2. Peak Oil is Bunkum

Oil is abiotic, not a fossil fuel. Peak Oil Theory is based on flawed mathematics.

3. Oh yea?

PROVE IT!

Clueless troll.

4. You are calling me a clueless troll?

Very mature.....

However, do you believe the science that states hydrocarbons are renewable? If so, peak oil theory has to be a scam.

May I suggest you read "The Deep Hot Biosphere: The Myth of Fossil Fuels" by Dr Thomas Gold before you make abusive statements in an attempt to perpetuate the peak oil lie and validate your own ignorance.

5. Hydrocarbons are renewable?
