Another 200,000 babies were born today. How much oil will they use if they each live until age 60?

Will oil last that long? I thought oil was suppose to run out around 2030. So, based on that you could say half the amount that 200,000 people do today. Pepole use different amounts of oil. Alot depends on their buying habbits, how much energy they use and the availability of alternative energy sources.





If you figure that we use 600 galons of oil a year for a group of four pepole for 60 years that's about 9000 galons per person over 60 years. That comes to about 1.8 billion galons of oil if my quick math is acurate.





If you assume the price will rise exponentially and your babies will be a normal crossection of people they will start using half of what they use every year so 150 this year, 75 next, 37, 18, 9, 4, 2, 1, 1/2 etc, would be 59.4 million gallons for the 200,000 over sixty years using nearly none by the time they become teenagers.Another 200,000 babies were born today.

it depends on how much oil thay use a day.





365*200,000*60*x=X





x=how much oil they use a day
