That' not what OP said. "oil consumption" not "energy consumption". But yes pretty much anyone with half a brain and no vested interested in fossil fuels agrees that fossil fuels need to be ran down ASAP and replaced with renewables. I'd imagine with optimized solar and next generation nuclear we could get a lot closer to "unrestricted" energy.

Yes,but maybe you missed my point, it was that "oil consumptiom" needs to go up along with oil prices before it can be taken down by renewables. That is fastest way, the slow way is to wait for disasters to keep happening and hope nations force change.
