Replacing helium on earth



G'day Groupies,
I saw a telly documentary last night which in discussing gasses in
general, explained the valuable nature of helium in industry and
science. Apparently it is lost all the time to space, due to its
bouyancy, and steps have been taken to store it underground when
recovered from flammable hydrocarbon deposits.
Q: Is synthesiation of He possible, and does this (production) occur
naturally?
Do we need fear running out?

Thanks
Jim G
