    Here is yet another 'Big Oil marketing representative' to frost you:

    Live Science: We Will Not Run Out of Fossil Fuels (Op-Ed)

    "However, new technologies for oil and gas exploration and extraction have upended the notion of fossil fuel scarcity: The limiting factor on humans' fossil fuel use will not be the exhaustion of economically recoverable fossil fuels, but the exhaustion of the Earth's capacity to withstand the harmful byproducts of fossil fuel combustion. ...

    Even if no more fossil fuels were to be discovered or deemed extractable, our nations already possess far more reserves and recoverable resources worldwide than we can burn without destroying the climate. Humanity has burned just a small portion of our fossil fuels to date."

    Aren't Op-Ed's opinions by definition?
