We need to have large oil reserves for when the rest of the world runs out of it. Even if super efficient electric engines/batteries arrive at some point in the not too distant future, planes and armies will still need fossil fuel to function. Since demand from India and China keeps going up,things are gonna suck hard for the world once we go past peak oil, and the future economic impact of increasingly scarce fuel will be really, really bad. Better to hold back now so we can have a significant safety buffer when that time comes.
Who's "we"? None of that shit is yours. All it will mean is even higher profits for oil companies. They'll rape us right along with the rest of the world.
