    Hope you have your EV picked out.
    The world is much closer to running out of oil than official estimates admit, according to a whistleblower at the International Energy Agency who claims it has been deliberately underplaying a looming shortage for fear of triggering panic buying.
    Key oil figures were distorted by US pressure, says whistleblower | Environment | The Guardian

    This point is emphasized by two recent articles, one from the Sydney Morning Herald that says that we have a lot less oil reserves underground than we've been led to believe and the other directly from Shell that says that a whole bunch more oil was just discovered in the Gulf of Mexico

    reverse oil war

    Consider an oil war where the agreement is that the Saudi's and the rest of the world agree to keep using oil until it runs out at about the same time. From a supply/demand perspective, neither wants to run out first because running out means you are at the mercy of the other.
