Whats wrong with China? Hint: its not the government.

The Oil Drum | Will the decline in world oil supply be fast or.
I get the impression (not based on data) that at some point there will be a quite steep decline in oil production/supply, and therefore we will see dramatic changes in how the world runs. However...

I think that is what Saudi Arabia is doing right now with their Strategic Energy Initiative where they say they have gotten their decline rate down from 8 percent to almost 2 percent. And they��.

India holds out helping hand to Mittals oil foray..

Eight Energy Myths Explained | Our Finite World
Oil is still the fuel of preference for long-distance travel, because (a) it is energy dense so it fits in a relatively small tank, (b) it is a liquid, so it is easy to dispense at refueling stations, and (c) we are now set up for liquid fuel use, with a huge.. More nuclear energy or viable development of fusion wont fix our collective lack of wisdom and restraint any more than giving a teenager a Tesla to save on his fuel bill will get said teenager to slow down and drive responsibly.���.

From a Failed Growth Economy to a Steady-State Economy
I sincerely hope ideas like these will soon be acknowledged not only as mainstream but as urgent - in the opinion of many it is past time for Herman to be awarded the Nobel Prize for Economics..

You believe what Obama says?
