Petroleum and other fossil fuels will most likely increase in price because they will be scarce in quantities since more and more people are using them to power their cars and other machines.

Answer:

The fact that fossil fuels aren't renewable (There is a limited supply) means that we might run out in the future. Due to this, if they stay at the prices they are now, they would run out much faster. If you raise the prices, they will run out slower.

The more demand, the higher the price.

I hope this helps!
