A Sneak Peek at the Oil Peak
MSNBC article today outlines the likely timing the the peak of worldwide oil production ... sometime between 2005 and 2010. Then the inevitable oil spikes while industrialized countries figure out how to make the most out of what's left via conservation and alternative sources. By the latter, I don't mean AE, but actually how to make other materials like coal and tar into things we can run cars with. In this phase, the environment if of secondary concern at best. Anyway, doom and gloomers, here it is.
