Takes a while to see though people on the internet without a way to watch their expressions and gestics in person. Hell, it took
me a while, hehe.
It is inevitable. Natural ressources are not infinite. "When" is debateable, the eventuality is not.
And as said before, combustion engines are way too ineffective. Two thirds of the energy in petrol is completly wasted. Thrown away for nothing.

That is a too dogmatic approach to market rules and too short sighted.
The market only reacts when under pressure and the development takes years, if not decades. We are in an ecomic downturn and still prices as oil are high as hardly ever before. Imagine what happens when the global demand rises again? And that situation won't get better anymore, as oil is ever harder to come by, and as such ever more expensive as well. When the day comes you better already have an alternative handy instead of only starting development then.
Btw, a curious tidbit, Gulf (=oil exporting) nations are heavly investing in renewables.
