This is not just methane .

It is a full molecular weight range

of hydrocarbons . Need proof ?

I hope you can read technical materials :

” In some ways the question is moot. It doesn’t matter if we are about to run out of oil because the burning of it is causing major problems with our environment. We should try to wean ourselves off the stuff as soon as we can regardless of the method of its formation. ”

I do not agree . If this theory is indeed correct , it implies that we can establish our own carbon cycle . By deep well injection of CO2 waste

gases , we can stimulate more hydrocarbon production underground .

This amounts to a carbon cycle not unlike that done by photosynthesis .

Here the energy comes , not from sunlight , but from geothermal heat .

“Towards Scale Solar Conversion of CO2 and Water Vapor to Hydrocarbon Fuels”

“The Pennsylvania State University (University Park, PA) and partner Sentech Corporation will develop catalyst-coated titanium dioxide nanotube membranes to use sunlight to convert carbon dioxide and water to methane and other hydrocarbon fuels. This innovative approach to direct solar fuels captures sunlight and uses CO2 as a carbon source to generate fuels for heating and transportation.”

What abiotic hydrocarbons that have been found only consist of methane, not the longer-chain petroleum molecules that go into gasoline and diesel.

It seems a lot of old oil company PR is getting dusted off again… they started running “diesel is more energy efficient” ads, again – even though diesel is still the #1 cause of childhood asthma, and electric cars are at least four times as efficient, energy-wise.
