BP: Climate Policy Will Cause Peak Oil

Chris | 24-01-2008 15:23 | Analysis | Climate Chaos | Ecology | Sheffield

In a unbelievable presentation to the All Party Parliamentary Group on Peak Oil and Gas on 16th January BP's Special Economic Advisor Peter Davies (no other oil company was prepared to address this group) claimed that "there's a distinct possibility that global oil consumption could peak as a result of climate policies" -- in other words NOT because supply problems but because of a reduction in demand! If you believe that governments around the world are going all out to reduce oil demand and switch to renewables then perhaps you might believe this... Of course they are not...

The APPGOPO Press Release on this presentation, which links to a MP3 of the event, follows, this presentation is being discussed on the PowerSwitch forum:  http://www.powerswitch.org.uk/forum/viewtopic.php?t=6231

Oil Price Touches $100 a Barrel; Signal of Pending Oil Shortages Ignored

The Oil Drum | 07-01-2008 10:31 | Analysis | Ecology | Technology | Sheffield | World

Oil Production Graph
The price for West Texas Intermediate (WTI) oil touched $100 on January 2, 2008, a new milestone. According to TheOilDrum.com, WTI oil price has been giving a very clear signal of pending shortage for over five years now, and in breaching the symbolic $100 a barrel mark, continues to do so. Those driving the world economy have steadfastly ignored this red warning light. In doing so, they are steering the world toward an energy disaster characterized by shortages, high energy prices, inflation, growing inequity, civil unrest and famine.

Beyond The Point Of No Return -- It's Too Late To Stop Climate Change

Ross Gelbspan | 14-12-2007 20:36 | Analysis | Climate Chaos | Ecology | Sheffield | World

As the pace of global warming kicks into overdrive, the hollow optimism of climate activists, along with the desperate responses of some of the world's most prominent climate scientists, is preventing us from focusing on the survival requirements of the human enterprise.

The environmental establishment continues to peddle the notion that we can solve the climate problem.

We can't.

We have failed to meet nature's deadline. In the next few years, this world will experience progressively more ominous and destabilizing changes. These will happen either incrementally -- or in sudden, abrupt jumps.

Under either scenario, it seems inevitable that we will soon be confronted by water shortages, crop failures, increasing damages from extreme weather events, collapsing infrastructures, and, potentially, breakdowns in the democratic process itself.

Peak Oil And The Vision In The Mirror

Aaron Wissner | 08-12-2007 15:21 | Analysis | Climate Chaos | Ecology | Sheffield | World

If you don't know what peak oil is, then, first of all, you are not alone. Most people don't seem to have a clue about it. And, even some that do, don't seem to get the full implications. Let me lay it out for you as succinctly as I can...

Michel Chossudovsky | 17-09-2007 09:55 | Analysis | Anti-militarism | Terror War | Sheffield | World

US Military Encirclement of Iran

With the possible exception of John Pilger, no world renowned journalist can take as much credit for consistently and credibly opposing US imperialist war-mongering as Robert Fisk. Today in the Independent he talks of his doubts about the official 911 story.

Why the AU Summit failed Afrika

Dr Kwame Osei | 19-07-2007 15:26 | Analysis | Sheffield

The historic AU Summit in Accra failed to take the bols steps that were needed to initiate the process of Afrika gaining true economic liberation and independence - this is what the grand arhitect of Afrikan Unity Osagyefo Dr Kwame Nkrumah advocated ironically in a similiar conference in Accra in 1965. Had the leaders then heeded Osagyefo's advice Afrika would now be a GLOBAL SUPER POWER able to determine its own affairs without White interference.
