For newer news you might read Matt Simmons's "Twilight in the Desert," among other things

Thanks for the rec, I need some new books for my collection.

I've been reading the Doomsters for many years. I have a very large collection of their nonsense. It's one of my very favorite things to do, read some book from the 50s, 60s, 70s, 80s predicting some calamity off in the the not too distant future. I think in order to sell these books the crisis has to be within 10 years because that is the most common time frame. This is great for people like me who like to see just how wrong predictions about how humans will use resources in the future because the prediction falls within my life expectancy (or at least so far).

The Sun will die out in 8 billion years. This is my prediction for when the Earth will finally have an energy crisis for real.
