How then, do we move backwards? How does a society, with most of the people having no clue of future events, move from being dependent on a vast and intertwined network of goods and services produced by the indigenous people of whereever, to a local resource and renewable energy based society, and do so in the timeframe available (20-30 years using the most liberal extimates, 10-20 with resonable estimates, 5-10 with worst case scenarios), all the while prices on everything increasing, world politics getting more militaristic, governments continuously reducing civil liberties, shortages of goods on the market and weather patterns resembling bad Hollywood movies?

Someone asked this on another forum :
Quote:
We use roughly 1/2 of oil consumption for motor vehicle fuels of all types. The other 1/2 includes home heating oil, boiler fuel for other buildings and powerplants, lubricants, industrial feed stock, and other purposes. Anyone have a breakdown of what percentage of oil use goes to each category?
