This document outlines key events and milestones related to the end of the oil age and transitioning away from oil dependency, including:
- Oil production surpassing discovery in the 1980s and peak oil production per capita in 1979 signaling that the end of the oil age had begun
- Boundaries of ecological and climate systems being exceeded from the 1990s onward as human activities surpassed biocapacity
- Geologist M. King Hubbert correctly predicting in 1956 that peak oil production would occur in the 2000s
