Actually, another problem. If we don't tie in peak oil to the climate crisis and the burning of coal we are contributing to making that disaster worse. We can't keep peak oil and the climate in separate compartments if we are concerned about the future.

That is near the heart of my proposals. Trade 20 BTUs of oil for 1 BTU of electricity. Good for Peak Oil, Good for Global Warming !

Hopefully, the electricity will come from conservation or wind, but still a net gain even if the electricity comes from coal.
