DS started asking about gas/oil the other day. He's very concerned that we are digging oil out of the ground and burning it all up in our cars, and then we are going to run out, and then what will we all do?
The same thing we did before we used gas and oil.
You know. Most of recorded history. The part with horses instead of cars.
The real question is how much energy can be obtained through standard renewable resources, such as solar, geothermal, tidal, etc.
It's really "peak cheap energy vs. human labor" moreso that "peak oil". I don't know a thing about nuclear with respect to this discussion, so I've never been able to lock down any projections with respect to this.
