Do you actually read your own links or do you just get the phrases you think support whatever argument you are currently flogging. From your posts, I'm fairly certain that you haven't actually sat down and read the theory of Peak Oil and that you haven't even read the link you just provided.
There is a limited amount of oil in the world and its production follows a bell shaped curve. The top of that curve may or may not be 12/15/06 or sometime farther in the future, who knows. You keep arguing about technology but that doesn't increase the amount of oil in the world, it just increases the efficiency with which we use a limited resource.
It does, in fact, argue for a clear-headed, wide-eyed understanding that oil is a limited resource that should be conserved lest we note a production peak (surprise!) and find ourselves at war for what's left of it...or, more likely, in bad economic straits. It argues for bikes and city living rather than Hummers and suburban sprawl.
If you think that the world is flush with oil, why do you think the real price has approached the oil shock prices of the last century?
---------- also, you only answered 1 of the questions:
Second, why does it bolster your argument... Fourth, do you think peak oil is some kind of liberal conspiracy (LOL) and if so, why do you think that? |
