Did you know that oil is created from tectonic movement creating massive heat and pressure, which then makes oil from minerals? It is 100% not made from dinosaurs or fossils, and is 100% renewable. As long as there is tectonic movement on earth, more oil will continue to be created. Or it's just a big Russian conspiracy.

  • It’s just a big Russian mistake. Oil for the most part isn’t made of dinosaurs, but it is made from old biomass. Sure, mineral hydrocarbons exist and they could rearrange themselves into petroleum under the right circumstances, but only a small fraction of the oil in existence could possibly be derived from minerals.

    Non-renewable considering it takes thousands of years to produce. Plus only so many minerals which won't be getting renewed.

  • Yes, but it is always in the process of making more. It's not like there is one batch that starts and then you have to wait for a new batch. It is constantly being created at all times. So there is a constant source. The mantle, crust, and core of the earth are what create the material, so to exhaust it we woukd literally have to have no planet left.
