Maybe human civilization is only meant to exist until fossil fuels are depleted?

According to who or what? Humans existed prior to discovering oil. In fact I am sure that if we never discovered it humans would still be alive AND the environment for which we depend on wouldn’t be absolutely fucked. Life would certainly be different but at least sustainable for a little while longer then this current shit show.

Fossil fuels gave us the technology to get where we are today. We have overcome natural limits for centuries. I believe we can continue to do that.
