Re: “If you truly believe 'peak oil' is real and we are about to run out . . . Invest your own money into alternatives.”
'Peak Oil' does not mean 'running out.' It means that the ratio between 'Energy in the oil' and 'Energy to get the oil' plummets toward 1.0. The ratio used to be about 150 to 1. Now it's about 5 to 1.

Fizzy > Question your premises. DEEPLY understand EROEI and the physics and other factors in play here, including the history. Pass the test. Panic early and avoid the rush.


Panic Porn, Fizzy?

Panic is the LAST thing anybody should want to do.

EREOI ? The real question is 'how much are people willing to pay for petroleum products?'

Another good question, "What are the alternatives and are they cost effective?"

If you truly believe 'peak oil' is real and we are about to run out . . . Invest your own money into alternatives.
