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?

There is lots of speculation now, even rumors of U.S. plans for a military takeover over of the small area where the big oil fields are should the House of Saud fall - and the king is old and frail.
The instability of Saudi Arabia certainly must be a factor in the U.S. moving it's mideast military bases to Iraq.
If you read my post on Dr. Bakhtiari, you will be even more convinced that middle east oil reserve data is extremely inaccurate.
