the concentration of a greenhouse gas double the pre-industrial age level in less than 20 years at current rates of FF consumption?...and w/o any change in usage, that concentration would be tripled in less than 50 years....(see the comments in my previous post)

#2) Do you agree that global oil reserves (see BP link) have not shown a significant increase in the last few decades...other than 'fracking'...a technology that doesn't imply un-ending "abundance'?

In the opinion of leaders for developed countries around the world, who have the very best information available to them...we need to take action...not some day in the future...but now.

Fossil fuels have unique uses for which there are no reasonable alternatives...burning them up in an instant to be lost forever, when we have alternatives (Nuclear and Renewables)...IMO is the height of foolishness...time for change.
