      Ridiculous. UK can't have it's own Peak Oil.

        Yeah, well if you're arguing against it - then it must be true!!!

        Is the world's oil running out fast? BBC

        North Sea production is declining at an increasing rate, having peaked in 1999.

        Not at the predicted flat rate of decline of 7%, but gradually accelerating from 7% to 8.5% to 11%.
        This article was published 3 years ago. Add to the continued rapid decline, ever increasing energy consumption and you can see this is a major problem.
        Is it me, or is MOBIUS a horrible person?

          Wow, an opinion piece written in 2004 by a guy attending the "Peak Oil Confrence in Berlin".

          I notice his predictions of everyone being forced to give up their cars and plastics becoming a luxury only the rich can afford hasn't happened yet.

                I am more concerned by peak population.

                        Incidentally, shouldn't greens think that "peak oil" is a good thing?

                          Yeah many do. However, coal prolly won't peak for another 10 years, IIRC so unfortunately as oil becomes more scarce the bloated population will resort to even more polluting methods of getting power (heating, cooking, etc.).

                            10? Try 100.

                            Assuming you buy that kind of thing.
