Makes sense...

According to a study done by Jeff Dukes, back in 1997, the “efficiency” rate of making oil from carbon in plant material, is about 10,000 to one. That means a LOT of plants and living material was needed to make the oil eventually.

In more concrete terms : about 10 metric tons of plant carbon was needed to make 1 kilo of oil. Further, since plants contain about 50% carbon, it means that 20 tons of plants turned into 1 kilo of oil. (One gallon of oil is about 3.2 kilos, and one gallon of gasoline takes about 4.6 kilos of oil to make). So each gallon of gasoline, took 90 TONS of plants to get from plants to car tank.[/i]
