Peak Oil and climate change

[Lanolin]

Just wondering what the Bible says about this.
The industrial age my be coming to a close if we run out of fuel, at the moment huge amounts of fossil fuels are burned to run it causing climate change or global warming, which to me is just another way of describing hell heating up.

Do you think in the future we could run cars on say olive oil or hydrogen (water)?
Will we still be using cars or maybe if the oil runs out or it becomes unecomnomic we will be using other means of transport.
Or we might power down and just have to use our own two legs and start walking or bicycling, what do you think?

I mean growing wings and flying is probably not going to happen, but it would be kinda cool if we could just fly everywhere like birds, without having to use jet fuel.

Ok nobody?

All I can think of is the bible does talk about evil inventions.

Ok nobody I guess the whole oil crisis thing never affected anyone. Apparently it ran out in 1973... well for america so they just bought some from other countries esp arab ones. Which is why they are so rich.

Yes, this is an old thread. I like to respond to those with low replies.

So now that America is exporting oil and other fuel sources and technology, that is evil? What is this thread about? Otherwise, consider how well any nation would fare slinging slingshots of stones against an army casting nuclear missiles and other super powered arms at them. There must be a minimum of rationality concerning national survival. Ya had better have God making up the difference to slay Goliath with a single stone.

I have actually thought about this before in relation to the Gospel parable of the 5 wise and 5 foolish virgins. Matthew 25. Current estimates that as early as 2030 the entire planet may have reached peak oil.

Also Revelation 11:18 comes to mind:

18 And the nations were angry, and thy wrath is come, and the time of the dead, that they should be judged, and that thou shouldest give reward unto thy servants the prophets, and to the saints, and them that fear thy name, small and great; and shouldest destroy them which destroy the earth.
