Sounds wonderful except oil and oil lubed items won't go away until the last drop is brewed.
I don't buy that excuse. Scientists here in the US and abroad are quite creative. I fond it hard to believe that alternatives have not already been discovered if not perfected.
I am not saying that it will occur over night or that there will not be bumps in the road but we were given a warning shot across the bow 30 years ago. Our greed, selfishness and ignorance has held us back. So many other nations have extensive public transportation to eliminate the need for cars in day to day travel needs. They have utilized diesel engines to reduce their oil needs, They have been using smaller cars. When I was in Europe a few weeks ago, I cannot even remember seeing a pick up truck much less a SUV on the roads.
Can you imagine what kind of impact there would be if 50% of the cars were electric and most homes had either a wind turbine or solar array on their roof tops? Can you imagine the reduction in pollutants and oil consumption? Can you imagine how scared the ME would be?
