Major UK companies have formed a “Task Force” to urge the UK government to take more seriously the threat of coming oil supply shortages – the “Peak Oil” problem. The Task Force have just launched an updated report after their first report in late 2008 was largely ignored by government. Source: ITPOES
I understand that Hubberts peak is true and that we are now past the point of peak oil. I think many of the current events have to do with this senerio and it won’t be long before the main stream media and population wake up and understand what is going on. For me and my family, we are preparing for the next generation.
Oil Crash – thank you for your comment – I absolutely agree. This is certainly an environmental issue, which is likely to have more immediate effect than direct action against Climate Change through use of fossil fuels. Many people believe we will never actually reach a concentration of 450ppm of CO2 in the atmosphere (as argued about in Copenhagen), as the reduction in the availability of oil over the next few years will prevent us from ever getting there.
