What is peak oil how society economy and personal life will be altered forever in a world without oil?

: A better question would be, "What will happen when the world's oil production peaks?" because the world won't 'run out of oil' for some time. However, production will not be able to keep pace with demand forever. : When the world's oil production peaks, there will be inevitable conflict for remaining resources. As consumption rises, prices will follow and supplies will continue to drop. The rate at which this happens will be determined by what we do now (i.e. investment in alternative energies for transportation) : On a side note: : Transportation right now in the U.S. is responsible for roughly 75% of oil consumption according to nationmaster.com. Total consumption has stayed at around 20.5 million barrels/day.


Which of the fallowing would not be a way we can cut back on our use of oil?

To cut back on oil use, we could avoid strategies such as increasing our reliance on single-passenger vehicles, which typically leads to higher oil consumption. Additionally, ignoring public transportation options or opting for high-oil consumption products would not contribute to reducing oil dependency. Focusing on sustainable practices and alternative energy sources would be more effective in cutting oil usage.
