[Foreign Policy] Oil Spin | Foreign Policy: This gives us H2 and CO, which are combined in a very well known chemical reaction to form hydrocarbon chains (such as gasoline, diesel, jet fuel, ethanol, etc...) This system concept is called Renewable FTS (Fischer Tropsh Synthesis), or RFTS. The trademark of this system is called WindFuels.

[Energy Bulletin -] "Peak Civilization": The Fall of the Roman Empire | Energy Bulletin: You can change the parameters and the assumptions - collapse can be postponed, but the model is very robust. An important point is that these bell shaped curves are typical and are always the result, unless you use very specific assumptions in input, usually assuming human intervention to avoid collapse.

[Climate Progress] Open challenge to long-wrong Michael Lynch, who predicted back in ...: Every country in this world has something to lose from peak oil but the western countries of the USA/EU and Autralia the most. From food production which is wastefully reliant on oil to freight that gors by road and not much any other way etc and because everyone likes the suburbs especially in the USA where driving 20 miles to a supermarket is probably quite common.

[The Oil Drum - Discussions about Energy and Our Future] The Oil Drum | Renewable Transition 1: Targets & Troubles: This, combined with the economic problems the US is already having, and the huge pile of debt we are building up, suggests to me that we will not have the resources to rapidly build out a renewable energy infrastructure that totally replaces those oil imports, let alone all the other depleting FFs, AND be able to make the continuing and increasing investments needed to do what we can with whatever domestic FFs are less, AND to make the energy efficiency investments needed (such as extensive electrified passenger and freight rail transport), AND keep up with the rest of our deteriorating infrastructure. I therefore see economic decline as inevitable and a foregone conclusion.

[The Oil Drum: Europe - Analysis and Discussion of the European Energy Gap and Peak Oil] "Peak Civilization": The Fall of the Roman Empire: That, I think,would be pretty much unlikely at the time, since in Western civilizations, at least, it wasn't until the publication of Thomas More's Utopia in 1516 that we ever viewed the future as a better place than the past, and thus see decline as something odd. Before then, the "Golden Age" of man--what civilizations aspired to, were always those of the past, and history was considered a process of degeneration.

[The Oil Drum - Discussions about Energy and Our Future] The Oil Drum | Renewable Transition 2: EROEI Uncertainty: It became clear to me that Moly and REEs where going to form a choke point as you put it and the short sightedness of the investment community had hammered these shares down well below the long term -financed- value of their superb assets. That the Chinese are able to spot an opportunity too does not now appear in question...

[News from www.prpeak.com] The Powell River Peak > News > Levy fuels clean energy projects: Since 2008, the ICE Fund has approved investments of about $47 million in 34 projects in communities across BC, representing a total value of over $174 million. These projects will help develop clean, renewable energy for British Columbians through various technological applications, including solar, wind, tidal, geothermal, ocean wave and bioenergy.

[The Oil Drum - Discussions about Energy and Our Future] The Oil Drum | Drumbeat: September 4, 2009: The new backlash is fueled by worries that renewable-energy projects would occupy vast amounts of land to produce significant amounts of power. Either renewable projects would have to be centralized and sprawling, covering many square miles apiece, or they would need to be distributed in pieces across millions of rooftops and lawns.

[Press Releases] Press Releases: Water Stocks Sector Close -Up on Water Stocks ...: (OTCBB: WSCE) is an Oil and Gas solutions provider focused on deploying its water remediation and environmental technologies that overcome tough operational challenges facing oil and gas operators today on a global basis. Virtually anywhere in the world oil is produced contaminated water is produced, this includes associated formation water in conventional oil and gas production and potable water used in unconventional oil production such as the massive Oil Sands development in Alberta Canada.

[The Oil Drum - Discussions about Energy and Our Future] The Oil Drum | IEA Economist Warns about World Oil Supply: And a life out there dealing with the REAL fundamentals puts the prices whgere the VALUE IS-spending on everything else is eliminated as necessary.I will draw up a contract,get a trustee to hold the money and bet you all I can raise that if the iea is still in business ten years fro now that the inflation adjusted price of oil is at least two hundred dollars by thier figutes for any rolling 365 day average contiaining our terminal date.The actual dollar price may well be twice or more that figure if the printing presses are kept well greased. But in the end,five years ten years next year twenty years unless there are positive energy Black Swans,it's die off either way for large parts of the population.

[The Oil Drum - Discussions about Energy and Our Future] The Oil Drum: Campfire | Peak Oil, Peak Credit and Investments ...: I think there is some disconnect here as it seems we are on same page - perhaps you just skimmed my post - I mentioned peak money early on - we have 2,000 trillion+ in obligations due to a fiat based leverage/credit splurge in order to 'obtain' supercharged status/wealth that before the 1970s was reasonably linked to primary goods - further, the terminus of such (2004-8) sent an erroneous signal to market that energy supply was much higher than it would have been without the supercharged credit- again - that was not point of this post but I will write another on it to clarify. Again, it's not my style to make recommendations and I don't think I made any other than 2nd to last paragraphs.

[Alternative Energy Stocks] New Flyer: A Clean Way to Play Extreme Peak Oil Scenarios ...: This is quite tricky, because most forms of renewable energy produce electricity, which we cannot use in our current .Bus mass transit is additionally likely to be a response of municipalities to peak oil because 80% Federal funding for bus purchases to meet increased ridership or replace old busses has been available since 2005.

[The Oil Drum - Discussions about Energy and Our Future] The Oil Drum | Book Review: Peak Oil Prep: The mountain of studies show this, and I guarantee that when peak oil forces industrialized folks to eat healthier (less environmentally disastrous and inefficient meat/dairy, more whole plants) - the result will be a rapid reversal of the diseases you mention above. In fact, in addition to science, history provides examples like WWII - the rates of chronic, lifestyle diseases went down when europeans were forced to eat lower on the food chain.
