Oil's why you are there, too. The North Sea is kaput gamachen...

Britain is a microcosm of Peak Oil in two senses. One is the fact that their reserves peaked in 1999. The second and more ominous is that few saw it coming. UK Peak Oil arrived silently and took the energy gurus by surprise. These so called experts also predicted Britain would be a net energy importer by 2010. The surprise decline in North Sea production has now brought that forward to 2007. So much for the experts and expect a repeat performance for worldwide Peak Oil.
