What I think will end up happening is a lot of fracking and a simultaneous growth of renewables. There’s money to be made in both, but renewables aren’t limited by finite resources, so they’re the future while the oil companies squeeze as much fossil fuel (read: money) out of the earth as they can in the meantime.
Luckily the finances have got a point where renewables are a no brainer. Hopefully they’d struggle to stop them if they wanted to. The big fossil fuel companies would be stupid not to invest in both.

How do you think we turn the unlimited source of energy into power? With rare resources!
For now. That’s not guaranteed to always be so, but we already know the hard limitations of fossil fuels.
