At the 2017 SEG Annual Meeting in Houston, several students, including two students from Romania, asked me if there is a future for our industry. Listening to media stories of renewable energy replacing fossil fuel energy in a utopian decade or so, and electric cars replacing internal combustion cars, the students were wondering whether getting a degree in geology or geophysics is a good long-term career choice. After giving the students several variations on the same answer, I decided to write an entry on this subject for my personal blog and for TLE.
