There is no doubt about it, Peak Oil is here to stay, wheather we like it or not, and most of us, like me, don´t like it.
I have been fortunate enough, as an illustrator, to work very closely to one the front scientists in the field of geology - Professor Kjell Aleklett of Uppsala University here in Sweden.
If you look to the right column in this blog of mine, there is a short notice about the book Kjell wrote and I illustrated "Perhaps the most important book written this century", big words but not so exaggerated as it might sound.
The book Peeking at Peak Oil is based on the research that Kjell and his group Uppsala Global Energy Systems (UGES) did over a period of almost ten years at the Department of Physics and Astronomy and later at the Department of Earth Sciences.
Amazon will be glad to send you a copy, because you better realise the fact that Peak Oil is here to stay. And all of us must do the best to prepare ourselfs.
And to make things even more convincing, you must read this in the British newspaper The Guardian. The former BP geologist Dr Richard G. Miller describes very clearly the present situation and where we are heading tomorrow and the day after tomorrow.
A BP geologist speeking out, it´s almost unbeliavable.
Please allow yourself the time to read the article, because it is important for everyone to understand the facts and reality.
A reality that most, if not all, politicans and economists all over the world are trying to hide, bury in the sand or cover up, because if they let it up to the surface, the economy will immediatly react on the negative side.
Some sort of panic will spread for the moment. And whom want that to happen?
No one, me neither. And not you.
Therefor it is vital that we slowly adopt to the fact - that the peak is here - so it doesn´t come as a complete surprise.
Prepare yourself by first reading this article in the Guardian and then follow it up by reading the book Peeking at Peak Oil.
There is not domesday tomorrow, there is no horse and carriage tomorrow, still being on the tableland or plateau we will slowly start our journey downhill, not very steep, but slowly downhill....
This is one of the illustrations in the book Peeking at Peak Oil.
Let me ask you one question, a very simple question; why do you think they drill for oil at the same depth as the height of Mount Everest and why do you think they are, even if there is a strong opposition to it, hoping to drill in the Arctic?
Because there is "no easy" oil to be found, like it was in the mid 1900´s.
And shale oil and gas is not the answer either, even if it to some degree replaces the loss of crude oil.
In the US in particular.
Many experts say the opposite, but there are facts that point the other way.
OK, now you have met the serious Olle, everything in life is not easy....
