Here's a ball park figure.
Carbonife...Hi Stuart<br />Here's a ball park figure.<br />Carboniferous period lasted 60 million years.<br />Let's assume we have chewed our way through 1/6th of the total geologic resource.<br />That means that we have burned 1n 150 years carbon that took 10 million years to take out of the atmosphere.<br /><br />Which means that in any one year we are burning carbon that took 64,000 years to be formed.<br /><br />O dear. I think I need to go back to bed...DocRichardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08903964792092284406noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9192922.post-67544798460082107092009-12-07T07:16:39.632+00:002009-12-07T07:16:39.632+00:00I'm sure someone has worked out proper deposit...I'm sure someone has worked out proper deposit to burn time and finding the info on the interweb is difficult for some reason. Assuming though, oil was formed from deposits over say 70 million years and that we have used oil in increasing amounts over the past 150 years up to the current peak, it is easy to guess that we must be getting through around 1 million years worth every year at present???Stuart Jefferyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12414305399511760663noreply@blogger.com
