At least we can drink water, much better to use as energy source some dark sludge that's otherwise useless, that's just laying there underground.

>otherwise useless

No, it's kinda really fundamentally needed in the production of this thing called plastics. Without oil, no plastics.

Sustainables with a nuclear baseload is the future.

what is that?

Research is done into creating plastics independent of crude oil

We can make plastic out of corn already.

Wind/water/solar power providing the majority of the energy needs we have, with be-it either fission or fusion nuclear power being available as 'on-demand' in case, say, the sky is overcast, or there's no wind.

such production is not supported by an already established industry, though

we should probably do something though, I don't like plastic just hanging around everywhere

Go tell India and China that.

And just, the overwhelming majority of non-western countries.

did you see that river in Guatemala?

it was just trash

it might have been from a flood though, idk

SHITHOLE

I think there is some kind of worm that can process plastic

I'm sure there's also research being done into genetically engineering microbes and similar organisms to break down plastic

It get loose and eat your car

but that's going to take a while, even without considering how and where to deploy such organisms, or how they might otherwise impact on the environment

And eat your car

"hey boss, yeah i'm gonna be late for work..., yeah the worms ate my car again"

Time to spread some freedom on Titan!

harvesting extraterrestrial objects for resources has long been an ambition of humanity, exemplified by the many instances in fiction where it is represented

Gas up the hueys, we are going to titan!

there is a planet that is just one big diamond

@DanielKO I heard Titan has weapons of mass destruction

U WOT

We The Expanse soon

Talking about science fiction, anyone excited about the season finale of The Expanse?

YES

Also Syfy finale.

And also no, because it means we have to suffer through months of nothing

We Amazon now.
