Different ways of living sounds like a future to me.

My point still remains that these natural resources are being depleted slowly but surely and soon they will not exist.
Conservation of matter says that the resources are not being destroyed, they are merely being converted to other resources (like, for example, carbon dioxide.) 5,000 years from now someone may be screaming that our lifestyles are using up all the precious carbon dioxide gas in the atmosphere, and creating useless byproducts like diesel fuel.
