"The abiotic oil theory goes back centuries and includes as its prominent champions Dimitri Mendeleev, best known for inventing the periodic table."

The powers that should not be are lying to us about "fossil" fuels. Petroleum and coal are not the product of dead dinosaurs or ancient plants. They are the product of volcanic activity from massive heat and pressure deep in the earth.
The earth's petroleum and carbonaceous gas and fuel deposits are formed mostly inorganically under extreme heat and pressure.
Thus the arguments about "peak oil" never materialized, just like the "ice age" predictions of the 70s never materialized, and the current climate change hysteria is another bunco scam that will never materialize. These existential crisis scams are cooked up by the wealthy to impoverish and distract the masses.
