Do some research and reading!
The whole enviro-Marxist position is dependent on oil being solely an INFINITE energy supply. Your admission that abiotic oil exitsts is a tip of the hat.

Now we must determine how to best use this non-infinite supply to it's maximum capacity via technology.

They might be slightly in the Western world, but in many parts of the world they are not. What, for instance is, your take on the fact that both China and India aspire to US or UK standards of living - at least one car per family (no matter how crap) - central heating, air conditioning?

But all this is OT of your original post. What new evidence? And where are the actual proofs anywhere in the world that abiotic oil works?

Hmmm - I think you might need to rephrase that. I would suggest that what you wanted to say was that The whole enviro-Marxist position is dependent on oil being solely a FINITE energy supply.

I never admitted anywhere on this thread that abiotic oil exists! Re-read!

Ah, now for once we agree!

I admit I had not run into the "abiotic" theory before and did not realise how idiotic it's base premise was or that it even had more than one person believing in it. Now I am aware I can happily file it under "flat earthers" and "tinerbell's fairy dust"

Funny, he cited the UN as the source for his numbers regarding population decline. Run along now.
