Posted by admin on February 16th, 2010 and filed under world oil production | 9 Comments »

World Bank Group President Robert Zoellick is calling on leaders of the world’s richest countries and major oil producers to act now on surging food and oil prices.

Liberia is one of those…rising food prices have pushed 200 thousand people into poverty there.

Zthustra: Update on Peak Oil (re-upload) (check the description)

Posted by admin on November 5th, 2009 and filed under peak oil production | 5 Comments »

his original upload can be found here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NIrPrDNj5VM please rate / comment / favorite there

i am re-uploading this because i talked about peak oil on my channel in the past, i feel that an update is needed, and Zarathustra just uploaded the perfect update, so why re-invent the wheel? Also, i would like to support him, he definitively deserves a few more subscribers.

Original description by Zthustra:
Peak Oil theory predicts growth in crude oil production, a peak in production represented by a plateau and then a decline in production. The world entered the peak oil production plateu in May 2005 and and appears to have exited after peaking again in August 2009.

Zarathustra examines a chart found at The Oil Drum.

If growth had occured as might have been expected from previous decades, world crude oil production would be about 87 Mbpd. The production plateau was at about 73 Mbpd. Production is now under 71 Mbpd.

Are we past peak? Only time will tell!
