Fool. Dinosaurs 2.0 just means more oil, the cycle will repeat and nothing ever changes.
Oil is mainly from plants that dyed million of years before dinosaurs even existed, before the bacteria and fungus that break down plants and wood evolved.
That’s why it’s a finite resource. You need all of that organic matter, unbroken by chemical digestion, to be heated and crushed for millions of years.
Spot on. And before plants we had mushrooms the size of trees covering the land.
