As the price goes up, alternatives will be employed. Metropolitan sewage facilities have cut the term of their lease agreements back to 10 and 5 year periods as the bidding for affluent intensifies. The Chilean nitrate will cease to be affordable in 15 to 20 years. It will get really ugly after that.
