I use wood to heat the house. I takes at least 30 years for a tree to grow up to meaningful size. If everyone would start to use wood to heat the house then all the forests are gone very soon. The same story with oil. At current rate of consumption it is going to be depleted soon. Global warming is simply a distraction for the real problem- depletion of oil.

You are pretending to know things that no human knows, probably because your Global Warming church leaders made you believe that your unquestioning faith somehow bestows divine knowledge upon you ... and that you are now some sort of scientific genius.

1) You do not know the current supply of hydrocarbons in the earth.

2) You do not know the rate at which the earth produces hydrocarbons.

3) You do not know exactly how the earth produces hydrocarbons because no human has ever observed the earth producing hydrocarbons, but we generally have a good idea from labratory synthesis of petroleum via conditions present in the earth's crust and mantle.

If you'd like a better understanding, you might be able to coax Into the Night into reviewing the process.

Wouldn't you agree this is a population/consumption based issue? The current trends have the population leveling off and possibly even beginning to contract in the next 100 years. Of course it's also going to be a more opulent lifestyle across the board as things are going so usage will likely go way up.



BUT if the population drops and we actually manage our resources I think there is plenty of time to get it right. I like your focus though as a better way of focusing the debate on human welfare.

The average age of a Christmas tree from a farm is about 5-7 years. The average age of a tree in the papermaking farms is about 7 years. The average age of a tree from the lumber farms is about 30 years. As a fuel, wood is inefficient. Why are you using wood for fuel?

IBDaMann is correct. We do not know any of these things. However, the whole Earth is making oil, and our puny little wells are not much of a draw on that resource.

Umm, depends on what you consider oil to be. If you're talking about about aviation fuel and gasoline, it might become a renewable energy source. It would of course take energy and when electricity becomes cheap enough, could happen.
This would also keep things that use fuel from increasing CO2 levels.
With the world population, it would be nice if people choose to have fewer kids but then 1 out of 5 Americans lives in either the New York, Chicago or Los Angeles metropolitan areas.
Watch Demolition Man, it takes place in the L.A.-San Diego metroplex. Wouldn't be surprised if one day Los Angeles and San Diego become one metropolitan area. Then people could live in at an expensive destination. And that is status which people like.

1) I know the consuption. It is enormous . And the fact that oil wells are depleted and they need to search for new wells constantly.

2) We know the rate of consumption. The oil wells get depleted and will be abandoned. The formation of oil ( if there is any ) is smaller than the rate of pumping.

3)We also know that it is possible to clone organism in the lab. Does not mean that somewhere in the jungle cloning just happens.

The one constant I keep coming up with is that a better solar panel might be one of the most important innovations. When you consider desalination, turning captured carbon into fuel, etc., a cheap source of energy is needed.
With hydrocarbons, the main issue might be trying to keeping our planet from becoming like Beijing
https://www.reuters.com/article/us-china-pollution-beijing/chinas-capital-beijing-vows-air-quality-improvement-but-gives-no-target-idUSKCN1Q90TU

One issue not mentioned is new housing construction. Is the lumber used from a sustainable market source or is it deforestation? I haven't seen anything on the amount of solar radiation absorption being lost. This increases the net amount of solar radiation in the atmosphere.
This is where a better solar panel can reduce the amount of solar radiation in the atmosphere.

Crude oil is possibly created from wetlands and marshes. After enough millenia the land builds up around and over them.
When dinosaurs roamed the Earth it was probably a slightly smaller planet. And because of the solar wind and gravity, over the eons it has gained mass.
Theoretically speaking, crude oil is being formed. Just give it about 50 million years give or take a few.

The average age of a tree in the papermaking farms is about 7 years.


Maybe in the tropical jungle. 7 years old tree is a christmas tree , I agree, but to cut it to feed the paper industry is silly. I have never seen such thing in real life. The wood is cut when the forest is matured and then you have to wait 70-80 years to cut it again.

As a fuel, wood is inefficient. Why are you using wood for fuel?


It is the cheapest way to heat the house . I also happen to have 50 hectars of forest so I do not have to pay for wood at all. Only physical labour is required which I take as a workout.

Most people have advance beyond the use of wood for fuel, dude (except for campfires).


The reason for that is that it is not possible to heat all homes with wood. All forest would be gone in a couple of months.


People can manufacture hydro carbons.


Using coal etc. quickly depleting resource. It is a dead end.

Maybe in the tropical jungle. 7 years old tree is a christmas tree , I agree, but to cut it to feed the paper industry is silly. I have never seen such thing in real life. The wood is cut when the forest is matured and then you have to wait 70-80 years to cut it again.

As a fuel, wood is inefficient. Why are you using wood for fuel?


It is the cheapest way to heat the house . I also happen to have 50 hectars of forest so I do not have to pay for wood at all. Only physical labour is required which I take as a workout.

Most people have advance beyond the use of wood for fuel, dude (except for campfires).


The reason for that is that it is not possible to heat all homes with wood. All forest would be gone in a couple of months.


People can manufacture hydro carbons.


Using coal etc. quickly depleting resource. It is a dead end.



Many paper mills in the US have tree farms. This ensures a supply of pulp.

Captured CO2 can be converted back into fuel again. It can allow for an indefinite supply of oil. I posted a link in my previous post in this thread. This way if electricity (battery powered) planes are not viable, then aviation fuel can be manufactured even if there is no oil in the ground.

Why do you believe that forming hydrocarbons requires millions of years when you know that they can be created in a lab within hours?

Why would you imagine it is somehow possible in wetlands and marshes if high temperatures and pressures are required?

Water is drawn into the ground. That's how aquifers are replenished. An oil well might be nothing more than compost from a wetland or marsh migrating into the earth's mantle over a period of many years/eons.

Nope. Everywhere papermaking trees are farmed. No tree is used in papermaking anymore that isn't farmed.

Okay. You live in a forest you own. Not everyone owns a forest or is fit enough to cut their own wood for their own fires.

Never suggested that anybody should heat their homes with any particular fuel. Heat your home with what you like.

Coal is cheap and widely available. So far, there are no indications it is depleting at all.

YOU don't get to dictate energy markets. If people want coal, they will buy coal. YOU don't get to decide for them.

Synthesizing oil uses conditions similar to that found naturally underground. There is no reason the Earth doesn't naturally synthesize oil the same way.

Why would a wetland or marsh migrate 10,000 feet into the Earth? Water boils down there.

Not here where I live.

Never made a relation. I agreed that a seven year old tree is suitable for christmas tree and then I simply said that selling 7 year old wood to paper industry is silly. The do not even accept this material here.

Never suggested that anybody should heat their homes with any particular fuel. Heat your home with what you like.


Just pointed out that it is not possible to heat all the houses with wood.

Nothing burger. Not all people are trying to heat their homes with wood.


Wanted to make absolutely clear why it is not possible to heat all the houses with wood. Some people here do not understand what depletion and unsustainable means.

Coal is cheap and widely available. So far, there are no indications it is depleting at all.

YOU don't get to dictate energy markets. If people want coal, they will buy coal. YOU don't get to decide for them.



I am absolutely happy about it. But the future is depletion of coal.

Not at all. You want a tree with long fibers. The fastest growing trees are best for that. Paper tree farms raise scrub alder or other fast growing tree. Some use bamboo. Hemp is still occasionally used. All of it is farmed.

So you don't accept that you can heat your home with what you like?? WTF????

Nope, we do not have such tree farms. We live in different regions. It take 100 year for a spruce to mature. They can live up to 250-300 years but the best age to cut them down in 100 years. Alder takes 30 -50 years to mature to cut for firewood. We do not have bamboo here.

So you don't accept that you can heat your home with what you like?? WTF????


Wanted to point out there are minimum dimensions for wood to sell for paper wood. 7 years old wood does not qualify. They do not want junk, they have enough proper dimension wood. Junk goes into the chipper and is used to make pellets or used directly for heat.

Nothing burger. Not all people are trying to heat their houses with wood.


There is not enough wood to do that.

Lie. You are NOT happy about it. Put away your Magick Holy Entrails. You can't predict the future.



Of course I am happy. Without coal we would be in a very dark cold place right now. But coal is depleting fast each and every day.
