LSC for sure. Peak for Total Liquids and Condensates is up in the air. We may be in the plateau at the peak; we haven't been able to produce more than 85MBPD in almost 2 years. 6 months ago, I thought we would peak at 90 MBPD, when demand was projected to be 120. Now, I'm thinking we may never see 86. Peak is something you only see in retrospect, so at's hard to tell. Deffeyes, however, called the peak last December, based on his math.

How would it exacerbate it?
We still burn oil, which still adds CO2 to the atmosphere. We may add less/ year, but it is still adding to the total load. The other way, as I said, is that coal is one of the replacements. Every ton of coal you burn adds 2 tons of CO2 to the atmosphere. Gets heavier because of the oxygen.
