BS civilizations will rise and fall for possibly millions of years or more on this planet.

How are those civilizations going to power themselves through industrialization?

Only those who dare to fail greatly, can ever achieve greatly
In the middle of difficulty lies opportunity
The only thing in life achieved without effort is failure
Time Circuits... On. Flux Capacitor.... fluxxing.

Our planet is very old, and could possibly give birth to new life for billions of years to come.

We might not be the first advanced civilization on this planet. This may not even be the first time humanity has risen.

There is a lot we don't know.

All those resources we "used up" aren't really gone. In fact much of it is floating through the ocean right now.

not only that, but they could stick with wood burning steam, go to electric without having fossil fuel. burn lots of trees. Fossil fuels just made it easier, Doesn't make it impossible to do it without.

hell our power-plants for the most part use steam to power turbines.
