Scallywag Posted August 29, 2008 Share Posted August 29, 2008 I would recommend the documentry Crude Impact. Peak Oil theory is certainly scary stuff and it does appear that we are now in the post-peak oil phase. Might help explain our recent interventions in the Middle East, no suprise that Bush & Cheney etc would understand the implications of Peak Oil.

coppercrutch Posted August 29, 2008 Share Posted August 29, 2008 Very interesting subject. Some totally different viewpoints around. All of them believable. There is the peak oil argument which seems the most logical. There is also the opposite argument, that certain oil reserves have been found in Russia and Vietnam (IIRC) that somehow replenish themselves....and that this 'peak oil' scare story is just one big scam to keep profits rolling in. Sounds crazy but a fair few seem to support it. Maybe they are all nutters. Maybe not. Who knows who to believe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sounds crazy but a fair few seem to support it. Maybe they are all nutters. Maybe not. Who knows who to believe. Sounds like something from a sci-fi novel I've thought that we've been on the down slope in terms of energy for a few years now, way before I seen the peak oil sites, and those at the top are too afraid (for obvious reasons) to tell us the truth and this is the main reason we (joe public) are being pressured into cleaning up our act after years of nobody giving a feck. As always, it's us that get's the rough end of the stick. We've been encouraged by our 'masters' to be happy little consumers for decades and have bought our way into oblivion, now the **** is hitting the fan they're starting to change their tune. Once again it will be us paying the price and having to cut down while big business and the government continue to waste waste waste and all the while they're STILL milking us for every penny. It's time for the sheeple to wise up and rise up . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
