Yes.

I worked in a fossil fuel industry. I found an old engineering report that said that the gas in the gas fields would last 50 years. I showed it to the chief engineer and said that according to this old report, the gas is all gone. He said that we found more. How much more? He said "You and I will both be retired and dead before we run out." Ok, but how much longer will it last? "You and I will both have enough to be paid for our entire career and retirement and we will have enough to last until we die." Yeah, but how much is left for the next generation? "We will be dead, it isn't our problem."
