Alternatives to current crude oil consumption necessary, analyst says

According to economist and academic specialist Alfredo Castillo, the fluctuating price of crude oil in world markets provides humanity with the possibility to reflect on its current massive consumption and seek alternative fuel sources. "I think that focusing on the price of crude oil is important, but we should think about the reality that we will face in the future. Considering the levels of crude oil that we are currently consumed on a daily basis, in no more than 30 years this fuel will be extinct," he argued. teleSUR
