Actually, Hubert did already speak to all these subjects. And again, it's frightening how accurate he was. In the 1970's he mentioned that OPEC would try to delay peak oil, by claiming that they felt that no further increase in production was really necessary to try to delay the peak moment. Sound familiar? He proved that once oil is discovered, and considering the Energy Invested to Recover Energy (how many barrels of oil do you have to spend to extract oil) - it takes about 25 years for newly discovered oil to really make a difference in the world economy.
This isn't about the cars you drive. That's just the most immediate thing we see on a day to day basis. This is about running our factories. Heating our homes. Creating and repairing roads. This is about running civilization. And time is the one thing that we dont have.
