If you don't understand EROIE or even know what it is, then this isn't a discussion for you. Just to correct the acronym, as it is a very important concept: it is EROEI.

But here's my two cents anyway: you're completely right on all accounts. It seems most estimates place peak oil around 2010 or 2012 give or take a few years. But even if we still had tons of undiscovered oil, it doesn't matter. Demand is going up. Supply is going down. The shit is going to get real. But no one I broach the subject with in real life seems to agree. I just hope that I'm totally totally wrong and they're totally right. I've had a great 30 years so far and the next 30 could be not too bad, but I've got little kids and their future is what frightens me.]]> Peak Oil and Energy shortages amf https://canadianpreppersnetwork.com/community/peak-oil-and-energy-shortages/its-here/#post-317759 https://canadianpreppersnetwork.com/community/peak-oil-and-energy-shortages/its-here/#post-313316 Tue, 15 May 2012 04:20:23 +0000 Peak Oil and Energy shortages eltoro https://canadianpreppersnetwork.com/community/peak-oil-and-energy-shortages/its-here/#post-313316 https://canadianpreppersnetwork.com/community/peak-oil-and-energy-shortages/its-here/#post-313315 Tue, 15 May 2012 04:15:12 +0000 Fact - American oil discoveries peaked in the 1930's
Fact - American oil production peaked in the 1970's
Fact - Global oil discoveries peaked in the 1960's
These are facts and you cannot disagree, dispute or debate them.
If you you think we can can achieve infinite growth on a finite planet you are either insane or lack basic mathematical understanding.
The only reason the planet can currently sustain 7 billion people is because of finite fossil fuels. That is about to change.
The German military has done reports. The US military has. So has the IMF. The head of the IEA has confirmed oil supply is about to become constricted.
Richard Branson and 20 other leading UK business people have commissioned 2 reports on peak oil. All these reports are public.
Peak oil is a real scary subject and many people just can't handle it.
But if you refuse to acknowledge peak oil, here is a list of people much smarter than you, some of whom have been researching this stuff longer than most of us have been alive.
Richard Heinberg
Prof Al Bartlett
Dr Robert Hirsch
Dr Colin Campbell
Chris Martenson
Jeremy Leggett
William R Catton
Dennis Meadows
Jared Diamond
And there are many, many others.
This debate shouldn't even be taking place. The exponential growth we've experienced for the last couple of hundred years thanks to fossil fuel energy is ending right now. It's happening as we speak.

I used to beleive in peak oil and the bible of it is Twilight in the Desert by Micheal Simmons. Although Yergin's books aren't bad either although they support the peak oil conspiracy theory.

But yes the easy, accessible oil is gone. Science and industry could get us out of here BUT think of the losses in coporate profits!!! Can you inagine the issues at the country club if some CEO misses a yacht payment?

For starters, 36 percent of American oil is domestic. Another 22 percent of America's oil comes from the hostile and violent country of, uh, Canada. In fact, our friendly neighbor to the north produces more of America's oil than all the gulf countries combined. So that's over half of America's oil controlled by countries with NBA franchises. Did we mention that America's third largest supplier of oil is Mexico?

Fast Forward to the BP Gulf. The Yank's and Brits, being smarter than the Russians tought that the water table on top of the oil wells will help control the intense pressure. They bored really deep also. the rest is history.

But think. Think. Oil is not Abiotic right? It comes from dinosuars. Right. And dinosaurs bones and shyte are in shallow layers on the planet. Not deep. Shallow Not deep. Russia was 75,000 The Gulf was 105,000. I'm going off my memory here, forgive me if I'm wrong. Ever hear of a dinosaur bone that deep?

ONe other small point, the end of the dinosaurs may likely have been a massive meteorite that dropped in the Gulf of Mexico. What are the odds dinosaur bones survived that?

So if Oil ONLY comes from dinosaur stuff, where did that oil come from? Think. Connect the dots. Or tell me that you believe everything you're told and there was no one on the grassy knoll. Either way I don't care.]]> Peak Oil and Energy shortages Mokonotora https://canadianpreppersnetwork.com/community/peak-oil-and-energy-shortages/its-here/#post-308052 https://canadianpreppersnetwork.com/community/peak-oil-and-energy-shortages/its-here/#post-308026 Sun, 26 Feb 2012 14:39:54 +0000 Google -abiotic oil-.
