Summary/Abstract: Little more optimistic predictions state that prices will rise. How fast depends from resource supplies. To slow it down we have to forget about using X% of sun energy in 50 years. Solutions decreasing oil usage in power plants and transport wont eliminate it complicity but will allow to buy time necessary to replace oil in other branches of economy. Otherwise agrarian revolution which made T. Malthus predictions ridiculous will have to bow before his vision. Today we have chance to see this problem before global peak oil thanks to speculative bobble, which lead many to bankruptcy. Future depends on biggest countries policy and research in public domain. Especially those with every day knowledge can influence our future. For one by voting for best representatives that will improve politic. Next by supporting public domain in search for solutions. Finally and most importantly by every day actions. Decisions that create energy usage like turning on computer or choosing private car instead of public transport. But many every day things requires a lot of knowledge to notice. This fact alone brings issue of energy like many others back to education process.
