That doesn't mean it won't happen.
Whether what's going to happen will be whatever it is you're imagining is completely different story entirely.
Needless to say, If you have a largely deindustrialized country you can't really make any sort of transition happen yourself anyway, not at the grand scale and speed necessary for this endeavour.
Expect fireworks.
> the world has roughly 47 years left at current consumption rate of oil.
This is contradictory?
Does that make those 47 years irrelevant - just because they will end?
There's no contradiction there. It just makes these last-remaining fossil fuels even more valuable.
Moreover oil use hasn't ramped down, nor is it getting replaced in any substantial way. I suspect people have no slightest clue just how reliant the modern world is on fossil fuels outside of it's use in cars.
