Do you seriously think we'll phase out oil and gas any time soon lmao. Maybe production will slow down by the next century, but it won't be for a long long long time.

Personal ICEs will be phased out as batteries get cheaper/potent and auto manufacturers will focus on EVs as their main product. This is great as Americans won't be beholden to gas prices anymore and won't face spikes like we saw last year.

Although (unfortunately) there will still be plenty of use for oil and gas.
