So what if some other commodity was in as short supply as oil?
How scarce would it have to be, how expensive would it need to get, before you changed your behavior? What would that change in behavior look like? Would you become an activist to conserve the commodity and use it sparingly? Or would you deplete it to nothing and go without? Or find a replacement? And if so, what would the replacement be?
What if coffee was as scarce as oil?
How about beef, or corn? Lithium (that makes batteries), or cotton?
Oil is used in a great many things, including plastics, so how expensive does oil need to get before we start seriously changing how we live so we can live without it?
