People have treated the environment over the past 200 years irresponsibly and
inconsiderately. If they had not based the development on non-renewable sources of
energy, we wouldn't now have to search for new, more environmentally friendly ones. If
the pessimists are right and the oil reserves prove considerably lower than current
exaggerated estimates, economic collapse will be inevitable.
If governments understood the importance of sustainable development better they could have
started boosting the use of alternative energies much earlier. But governments usually lack
vision and the courage to respond to seemingly implausible and irrational scenarios, although
they are fully answerable for energy policies.

If energy companies from Russia and China try to aggressively gain a bigger share of
oil reserves, companies in Europe and the USA will have/be forced to build more
nuclear power plants and invest in the use of solar, wind or geothermal energy.
Kdyby bylo lidstvo neobjevilo způsob, jak zpracovávat ropu a získat z ní energii, nebylo by
nyní na současné technologické úrovni, ale současně by nebylo zničilo své životní prostředí.
If mankind had not discovered the way to process oil and acquire/obtain energy from
