Hydrocarbons/Oil: The Chemistry of LIFE

Everything, everything, everything in the modern world revolves around and depends on hydrocarbons.

Food Production
Paint Products
Plastics
Clothing
Housing and Construction Materials

You cannot move one inch without touching, using, rubbing up against things manufactured with hydrocarbons. We have become totally dependent on hydrocarbons. It has enabled the planet to support 7 billion human beings. Especially in the area of food production.

Global human population growth amounts to around 83 million annually, or 1.1% per year. The global population has grown from 1 billion in 1800 to 7.6 billion in 2017. It is expected to keep growing, and estimates have put the total population at 8.6 billion by mid-2030, 9.8 billion by mid-2050 and 11.2 billion by 2100.

The Chemistry of Life: Oil's Many Uses

Besides water, there's no liquid that humans rely on more than petroleum. It fuels our vehicles, heats our homes, paves our roads and fills our shopping shelves with innumerable consumer products.

About 85 percent of the petroleum, or crude oil, consumed in the United States goes into fuels, such as gasoline, jet fuel, and home-heating oil, according the most recent data from the Energy Information Administration.

"The liquid fuels are what everyone knows about, but a very large number of other products come from petroleum," said Jean-François Larivé, technical coordinator for Concawe, a European oil company association.

The list of non-fuel compounds that can be extracted from oil is exhaustive: lubricants for cars, asphalt for roads, tars for roofing, waxes for food wrapping, as well as solvents for paints, cosmetics, and dry cleaning products. Petrochemicals also provide the building blocks for a vast panoply of plastics and foams.

Get rid of Hydrocarbons, you better be prepared to eliminate 6 billion lives. We have become addicted. It will take a long term well orchestrated recovery plan to eliminate Hydrocarbons peacefully. The only other way is a third world war that eliminates a large portion of the population. That war will be over Hydrocarbons.
