The oil industry's hold on economies and politics has dominated the 20th century. The oil industry expects no different in the next. Yet if oil and other fossil fuels continue to be used at the current rate, the world is heading for environmental disater. Since the end of the 1980s, global warming has grown to be widely accepted as the single biggest threat to a viable future.
