      I think its highly likely particularly as other developing countries like China and India increase their demands on it. We really do need to try and find other ways of generating energy just to be sure and its better to find these sooner rather than later!

      It is possible, we are using more and more. We shouldn’t wait until it runs out to find alternatives, we should be doing that now. Not just because they will run out but also to improve the environment.

      Yes, I think it is probably likely. Luckily there are lots of scientists, like me, working on alternative ways to power cars in the future. If we can develop hydrogen cars, it will reduce our reliance on petrol so we might be able to sustain it for longer.
