Peak oil is real in the sense that it is a finite resource on a finite planet. Those are facts.
The problem with peak oil I think is that our economy, political and financial systems are based on cheap oil/energy.
We know it's a real thing, we just need to align everything with the falling production of oil.
Stop and think about how many things on a daily basis use oil, then figure out what can be replaced with some other resource.
Why did everything become plastic bags? Sure they are cheaper for now.... but you can re-grow a tree not an oil well. (Still a bag is a bag, we are just a wasteful people, you could use re-useable hemp bags for anything)
