Big and giant mining and exploration companies are everywhere as long as 'black gold'
if found to be present somewhere. Imagine if the was no 'Mr.black gold',
may be monopoly would only be company's slogan or may be a slang
And it goes without saying,green house troubles would be a history probably a prophecy
Afghanistan would be more developed like most countries
our soldiers would be more concerned with something else-may be alien invasion
Population displacement wouldn't a thing to mention
And may be Antarctica and Greenland would expand there territories
Civil wars and Economic stagnation wouldn't part of some African countries
May be the World population would be reaching 2.5 billion people
Farming and Tech innovation would be the 'thing'
But still,Even if there was no oil;the world would busy with its military structures

No oil means no gulf war but Israel Palestinian war would still have been there. There would have been no pollution as in Delhi at the moment. Most importantly I would have been better off staying at home instead of going to Nigeria leaving my established government job.

I think if we don't have oil, our life is hard, because oil is one of the important thing now

Oil is such a pivotal commodity in any country most especially that it runs most industries. However, this question of "what if" it would disappear or not in present time. I guess, humans as curious as we are will definitely find it's way on making the most out of what is given. But for now, the oil industry is slowly having some alternatives to it most especially in the transportation sector such as electronic cars and such. Thanks for your post!

If there would be no oil then there would be a decline in the economy for sure...

No oil means we are in trouble. We need to find more alternative way as soon as possible.

Oil is not a renewable resource. There are people who cannot afford to go to hospital because the cost is high. Medicines contain oil and several plastic equipments as well.
Soon this will be reality. Oil price will go higher.
