Good reason to worry. Even if VO production was maxed out, assuming there is enough land, water and fertilizer, it could only meet less than 10% of the total demand for diesel fuel. When the sweet crude is depleted diesel fuel will be made from heavy oil, oil sand, and coal, and there's hundreds of year's worth just in N.America.
