We are way way closer to the last net enegery positive barrel of oil than we are to the first. The growth rate of extraction has been shrinking for decades. We will get to zero growth rate of extraction much sooner than people think. When that happens we lose most of our modern world. When people want to talk about making a transition, which will mean using less stuff and less energy, they always get demonized.

All false. We have LOTS of oil and gas and coal we can extract even with current technology - Hundreds of years’ worth in our own country. That is to say nothing of Nuclear energy. Uranium is not exactly rare.

We are not going to conserve our way out of needing large amounts of energy. Wind and Solar are boondoggles. Neither is reliable nor does either produce anywhere near enough energy at anything approaching an affordable cost.
