It is the blood of our way of life, oil and it's derivatives are ubiquitous in the products we produce and consume.
I guess their point was that getting off oil was going to be near impossible.
Still isn't it totally necessary if we are to save ourselves? Don't we have to get off the stuff? And isn't what looks like near impossible today, totally doable some day?
And shouldn't we try to get to that "some day" soon?!
