Most people live in the here and now, state of mind. Some people worry about where their next meal is coming from, or where they will be sleeping. Others worry about putting their children through college, or making their house payments. These worries are all legitimate, but a very small percentage of our population is worrying about what we will be using for fuel when the oil expires.
What do we plan for during our lives? We plan for school, tests, car payments, rent, weddings, children, house payments, funeral arrangements, etc. Why are we not planning for the oil conclusion. I will tell you. People do not think this is a problem. People think that life will not change that dramatically, if and when the oil runs out, because the government will “save” us. The government will figure out some way to let us keep living the way we have been for decades. Many people think this is all a hoist, that there is no such thing as “running out of oil”. But that people are trying to make a quick buck by “going green”, and using this concept to their fullest advantage.
I think there needs to be clips of what’s happening with the oil peak and dissipation during movie previews, on TV for commercials, maybe even brought into TV shows, to make people aware about the seriousness of this problem.
