    Thorium, other nuclear power, something. Losing oil won't be a biggie, only for the nations who depend upon exporting it. ()

    Thorium does look like quite an inviting alternative source. India is currently investing a lot in this sphere of research because of its vast amounts of Thorium reserves !

    Its not a question of running out, its a question of the rising cost of extraction. The switch isn't going to happen suddenly when the last oil well dries up.
