I still wonder why nobody has come up with a way to make synthetic fossil fuels.
I mean other minerals (that came into existance in pretty much the same procces as oil) have been synthesized. Then again my knowledge on the subject is very, very... rudimentary.

they probably can do it, in some underground US military research base in the middle of Nevada costing $100,000 per kg of coal.

Well I'm only 15, so gas, oil and coal are probably going to all be lost by the time I die.

I think that we should just burn it all now so that we have to get renewable energy sharpish.

That's what you think. Contray to popular belief, there is still lotsof oil in the the world, it's just that lots of it is in war-torn nations in Africa. Also, Canada is the country with the world's largest oil reserve, with several trillion barrels in the land. the only problem is that it's in the form of thick tar that is very hard to extract and crack to make useful so it is not economically viable to do so right now, it should be in the future. America also has lots of oil, but they're storing it up so they can sell it for a hugely inflated price in the future, so they'll find themsleves in the same position Saudi Arabia is now.

I like the idea even better! and then we can burn anything left on mars, to create a greenhouse atmosphere, to heat it up, then we get a whole new planet.. and WAHEY!
