The correct answer is: the geographic location and limited nature of fossil fuels.
Fossil fuels are finite resources and their availability is limited by the locations where they are found. While technological advancements have allowed for the extraction of fossil fuels from more remote or challenging areas, there is still a finite amount of these resources available for extraction. Environmental protections, lack of capital investment, trade caps, and subsidies to alternative energy sources may also impact the production and availability of fossil fuels, but the primary limitation is the finite nature of the resources themselves.
