Peak oil, and "oh my God, what will happen next?" - Oil will eventually peak, but this event is not close yet and is unlikely to occur for several decades. Even after it peaks, we will not run out of oil for centuries. We will find other ways to harness energy. Government can play a role by funding long-term, rational, and untainted research.

Or maybe even the conclusion:

Changes in energy will happen. Transitions will certainly take place. Natural gas is the next obvious option. My prediction is that eventually everything will be electrified. As part of that, nuclear power will play a huge role. But the transition out of oil will take decades. And despite all of the rhetoric, the apocalypse is still a long way off.
