PEAK OIL

Dr Arnoux and Mr Nègre both pointed out that while the challenges of Climate Change are real and pressing, the challenges of Peak Oil and of the peaking of other fossil fuels are much more immediate and potential dire. Source

Peak oil is here we need to find the middle ground between  complacency and panic.  Deal with reality or reality will deal with you!

DID YOU KNOW

NOW

 

2010 or earlier????

Oil reached $100
a barrel
in January 2008

 Oil is expect to double in
next 2 years   

Are you prepared?
What are the alternatives?

What impact will this have on your budget, you work, cost of food, mortgage, transport. Think about it..

New Zealand Oil price drops but no fall in petrol cost - PAIN AT THE PUMP 

Average fuel prices:

January 3: US-traded Brent crude US$100 a barrel, highest ever. 91 octane 171.6c a litre, diesel 125.8c.

February 4: US-traded Brent crude US$88.98 a barrel,  91 octane 170.9ca litre, diesel 120.9c-125.9c. Source

Question who is ripping who off? Will our fuel be $3.50 or $4.00 a litre in two years? Oil companies making record profits
Maybe the consumer needs an alternative!  

Think Compressed Air for Transport and Electricity Generation!

PAIN AT THE PUMP 

In May 2008 Petrol Prices in New Zealand topped $2.00
mark for the first time!  
Yet few people realise we have reached "Peak Oil"
and prices will only continue to rise.
The world need to address this urgently and seek, new and sustainable, environmentally friendly solutions.

Think Compressed Air for Transport

and Electricity Generation!

 
What is Peak Oil?        Peak Oil - An article by Karrde

Well there is a big misconception about what ‘peak oil’ really is. Many people believe that when we reach ‘peak oil’ the world will run out of oil. This is far from the truth and in reality we have more oil in this earth than we could use for centuries to come.

Known as Gator Gap

the ever growing gap between
oil consumption
and
oil discoveries

What does it mean
for each of us?

Does it mean the world will run out of oil?  No

 

Fast declining Net Energy


Is the cost of producing oil rising?
Yes

 

The end of the Oil Era

How long will it remain viable to produce oil ?

Oil -- who needs it?  We do, obviously.  Or we think we do!

Oil makes the world go around. It heats our homes, runs our cars, powers our societies, finances economic development -- and triggers international wars. But the world's oil supplies are running out -- fast.
Some think the global supply of oil has already "peaked"; we are already using up the second half of the planet's supply. With a fast-growing global population, how much time do we have before the demand for oil vastly outstrips supply? Some analysts think we will face resource wars in our own lifetime, and a global economic depression provoked by our dependence on oil. The result, according to A Crude Awakening, a new documentary, could be a petrochemical apocalypse. Hydrocarbon Man is doomed.

New to Peak Oil?

If this is the first time you are hearing about Peak Oil, you are among the majority of the population. Peak Oil doesn't mean 'running out of oil', but rather 'running out of cheap and plentiful oil'. Inexpensive oil supports our very way of life, as we know it. It is crucial for our transportation, food production, economy and basically everything that we use on a daily basis.

What are the world's alternatives?

Change.....
 

What needs to change?  

  • The way the world does business

  • The way broadband is delivered

  • The way we fuel our cars

  • The way we generate electricity

  • Production of Air Car think globally, manufacture locally

Ultimately, the energy-intensive industrial age may be little more than a blip in the course of human history:
