Some of Hirsch's points worth considering are:
- The problem is not an energy crisis; it's liquid fuel for transportation that will be affected when oil peaks.
- Improved fuel efficiency alone will not solve the problem because of increasing demand.
- Implementing mitigation processes will take at least ten years, more likely twenty years, to avoid serious problems.
- Industry cannot do it alone. A government effort on the order of the Manhattan Project or going to the moon is needed.
