Having said that however, I'm not convinced the "official position" necessarily reflects government's (or at least certain key individuals) understanding. At least I hope not!

Maybe Sir David King truly knows the PO (Peak Oil) danger and he is making a political choice not to mention PO but concentrate on climate change so that he doesn't dilute the case for action between two causes.

I think his climate change concerns are valid.
It might be that the government wants to choose it's fights and keep quiet on PO for now, concentrating on CC.

News management.
