While most of my focus is on climate change

... because I believe this could end not only us as a species, but could wipe out most life on this planet, I have not forgotten about peak oil and the economic and social drama that will produce. A combination of the two events is hurtling towards us, and I think there is not much that can be done to divert it.

This presentation of peak oil gives a good summary/prediction of what lies ahead.

There are smart people working on transition towns and the like. I hope that will suffice, but I am doubtful. But, eternal optimist, I am learning more every year about backyard vegetable gardening!
