All this talk is assuming that fossil fules are the only source of energy. We will run out and then what? I think we will find new sources of energy like cold fusion to replace fossil fuels.
I like the quote "you can't let others do the thinking for us."
I'm guessing we're hanging around 11:50, bacteria in a bottle. What was that movie where they cut a bastard lose to wander in the desert with just a can of oil? modern agriculture. world without end is a catholic prayer by the way. youtube rocks. don't forget to download.
youtube comments are beyond retarded.There are some very valid points made in this series,especially these suppirted by simple math and past experiences.Whats not being taken into account is other energy sources. thats just no the topic.looks like many nations will see no other choice than going nuclear (wich only shifts the probmel into the future for a few more "minutes" while increasing risks for desasters),while a few nations can rely idely on renewable energy.

We only have 2 things that are not in short supply; water and the sun. The only technology that comes to mind is hydrolysis. Hydrolysis powered by solar, wind, geothermal, hydroelectric and nuclear seems to be what we should be pushing for. By the way, I am almost done with my chemical engineering degree and I am really interested in hydrogen fuel cell development. I hope to contribute something meaningful towards the solution. I hope some of you college bound people consider engineering majors.
@mumbles005 Water and sun doesnt make the corporations money,get politicians elected,create wars to profit from....so i dont see a future for your work....
Well take the case of Denmark. Going for a cut of use of fossil fuels with 40 % in 2020 and complete shift to GREEN energy in 2050. The Sun gives infinite energy. I hope the rest of the world will follow this example and not use the remaining fossil fuels in the underground as this will ruin our environment. Time is for more responsability also for individuals. Energy consumption from individuals should be lowered in the same proces where energy consumption changes to green energy.
That is a weird as hell definition of “modern argiculture”. Sorry, but I call bullshit on that. It’s the transformation of SUNLIGHT into food. Or energy into another energy. As is everything ever done in all of the universe forever.

There is a REALLY important point that the good professor is missing and not talking about and that is that the right side of hubbart's curve is MUCH more costly and has a substantially lower energy return on energy invested. Whereas on the way up the curve, oil is coming out under it's own pressure whereas after peak, it has to be laboriously pumped out. Therefor we get less NET energy from the second as we did from the first half. This is ESSENTIAL to oil production conversation.
@christo930 And that is just an individual well. Whereas early oil discoveries were the highest quality, at the shallowest depth and the cheapest to produce, the later oil discoveries are under miles of water and miles more of rock. Where a 100 foot tower was sufficient to reach the early oil, we now have oil wells larger than a skyscraper that is floating on the water! You simply can not compare the early oil to the later oil. As easy as the first well was is as hard as the last one will be.
@christo930 im have no idea if that is nonsense what im talking about (for i have no knowledge about power consumption of oil drilling operations), but isnt that amount of additional needed energy covered by more sophisticated generators with higher thermal efficiency? (again, this is a shot in the dark. but i'd like to learn a few things, if you have the knowledge)
@CalderaXII When an oilfield is first tapped, it is under high pressure and comes up out of the ground on it's own pressure. But, as more and more of the oil comes up that pressure drops and wells are pressurized with steam or compressed co2 or laboriously pumped by electric powered pumps. Also the water cut goes up (meaning there is more water in the oil) as the well is produced. Check out this /watch?v=cwNgNyiXPLk&
What we are discussing starts at about the 1:20 mark.
@christo930 I don't really understand what you mean and why it is essential in this conversation. Could you please elaborate? Know I am a complete outsider to both arithmetics and oil production
@shaquedemuzz I don't know which comment I made that you are replying to, but I will assume it is the one with 19 up votes. An oil field is not an underground cave filled with oil, the oil is actually in the pores of the rocks and is under pressure. As the oil is produced, there is less and less pressure in the reservoir. So at first, oil comes out under it's own pressure, but over time, the pressure drops and you have inject CO2 or water or use pumps to produce the rest of the recoverable oil
@christo930 (cont) Also, the lighter liquids tend to come up first, and that lighter oil is of better quality. So what is left is a heavier oil, usually mixed with brine. If you plotted out the production of an oilfield, it would look something like this /\. The left half is usually heavier, more costly to get out of the ground, takes much more energy to get out of the ground and needs more refining. Over time a field gets more and more expensive to produce. I hope that answers it.
When the oil becomes too much, we'll starve. Or eat each other and then starve later.
If I recall the 2008 oil spike was accompanied with a food crisis. Whilst its entirely possible to merely be a causality fallacy on my part it can make you think.

Search for "FREE ENERGY Home Generator -Zero Point Energy - Off the Grid" on YouTube to find another example of how we are NOT the problem, we are the SOLUTION!
My intention is NOT to troll this series! I want to give others an alternative viewpoint... only that!
I watched "Climategat 2-US Government Involved in Data Manipulation" and it is accurate. However, I don't see how it makes the data from this video--which was collected by completely different individuals who are in a completely different field (Geology)--false. None of this video makes any reference to global warming as "Climategat 2-US Government Involved in Data Manipulation" does. Instead, it is referencing population growth and potential energy deficiencies.
So I do admit that there have been climatologists who have produced inaccurate and biased data. However, there have been very very few of them. Most statistics we see put up on news stations are very subjective and lack a scientific method in data collection.
There is a consensus among the scientific community that "climate change" is occurring. These scientists do not, on the other hand, know what the result of climate change will be...
So the choice is clear TheHeurist... Are you going to reject the majority of scientific conclusions in favor of what our obviously subjective news outlets tell you? Or are you going to believe the scientists who created many of the luxuries you enjoy today--including your automobiles, planes and power plants?
All I ask is that you don't give in to the dualities--such either completely accepting all information in regard to climate change or completely dismissing it.
All I ask is that you don't simply accept the conclusions or data from this video or that video. Do your research. Most of my knowledge regarding climate change is that there are very few reported incidences of data manipulation--although they do exist.
The more you do your research and gain knowledge, the more you will realize how little you know. Most climatologists admit that they don't know exactly what climate change will do or how rapidly changes will occur.
@contactbrewer - How do you know I haven't done this? Look, it doesn't matter anyway. Just put this term into your browser and see for yourself. The search should be done on YouTube so that you will find the video.
"Global Warming And the Carbon Tax Scam". That will clear up a few issues.
Hey, thanks for showing me that video. It was very eye-opening. My reaction to your first video was based on the fact that many people use that one instance as a way to dismiss the notion of a scientific consensus.
The "Global Warming And the Carbon Tax Scam" video is absolutely right about there being a whole industry which has been created out of the climate change debate. The industry itself, including the "green movement," has become very distorted and often doesn't lead by example.
The weird part is, the video you suggested uses the IPCC as an example of an organization which is not strictly composed of scientists.
This is very interesting. I didn't know about this and much of my research on climate change doesn't seem to emphasize one scientific organization or journal. Instead, I see all of the evidence presented, and there is a clear consensus to be seen. Scientists are the last people on earth to make a plan to lie about something. Politicians and corporations are the first to do so.
The idea that these profit interests are trying to make the world panic about oil and other CO2 releasing fuels to support the climate change industry is not very well supported. I'd love to see more evidence though. I'm always open to new information.
@frank12364 I'm not sure if you understood my comment. I agree that the professor in this video gave more than enough evidence. I was replying to TheHeurist who claims that this video, "The Most IMPORTANT Video You'll Ever See," is, in one way or another, the produce of a propaganda campaign to create the "green" industry. I was simply replying and disagreeing with the evidence behind his claim.
Honestly though, I think our world is facing issues far greater than this. If you really want to know what's going on, watch "Zeitgeist: Addendum." If you think it's crazy that people could live in that kind of world, watch "Zeitgiest: Moving Forward."
It's great stuff about doubling times and such, but it is bad science! It is based upon globalist scarcity lies. The professor is completely given over to those lies. He simply provides a convincing plausibility for this scripted scarcity. Wake up people, you are being lied to. We are NOT running out of oil. Oil does NOT come from dinosaurs and dead plant life! Stop believing these lies.
And I also think everybody in the world should watch these 8 videos (translated into every language), because if we do the world would understand what we are doing and how it's going to destroy us in the end.
@JustinBeiberIsPoop Agree !!!! The biggest fucked up religion, the roman catholics, of our country, the third world Philippines, are still endorsing the "go forth and multiply" mentality to its devotees. Our current president, mr. aquino, is fighting in favor of the reproductive health bill to be passed, but the biggest hindrance is the retarded catholic priests and bishops of our God forsaken country. Ironic?... Unless we do something, we'll all die elbowing each other for space.
When you think about it, Someone in the world ( the owner of the oil company) is making millions of dollars ( perhaps billions?) every year. They're being paid sooooo much just to make oil taken for granted for us and when we run out we're probably going to go all crazy.
@godzukification: Makes YOU not want to have kids. So mine can live. Thanks for that, my sacrificial sheep! ^^ My heritage will be the last thing living on this planet, even if it’s (duh) the last thing I’ll do! ^^ (Yes, you can fight me. That’s good since it’s the point. You can even fight unfairly. But I will will. ^^)
@godzukification Monsanto is taking care of that, with reproduction disruption in lab rats as one of the side effects of their GMO patented, sterile "food". I really wish North America would label it.
@godzukification While it would have been nice to have kids....I love my future kids so much.....that I will spare them their journey on earth, which will be shitty at best.....by not having them!!!!
@brbr28 No no no. If you are smart enough to realise that you shouldn't have kids, then you should definitely have kids!! I was one of the 53 people who saw 'Idiocracy', great film, but it paints an even dimmer prospect for humanity than the good Dr here. Check it out.
Just what The Zeitgeist Movement have been saying, just check their webite, aslo you can visit The Venus Project which is the solution for this and other problems. Also if you wanna help with your computer research cures/treatment for diseases like AIDS, Cancer, etc, visit my channel; I have the addresses of both projects in my channel.
Assholes have turned the world into a septic tank and experts like that exist in an attempt to prevent us form poking our heads out of the bullshit they have spent so much time burying us in.
The data from this video is consistent with the majority of scientific conclusions across the globe. Make sure to do your research man. But I hope you're right and reality is just playing tricks on the scientific community.
the decline already started. that means the estimate of 2000 billion barrels overall was the right one. i guess by 2020 we'll notice that something is wrong and 2040 is game over = too little food, transportation and too many people. if people kill animals when they're hungry, they'll kill each other too...
good video. but you don't understand ethanol completely. it is producing more energy than it takes to make. it does have limits. but it is making a difference. last years production was 13 Billion gallons in the US. it can be produced without fossil fuel inputs, it would be harder but it is possible. i can't think of any other OPEC country that could pick up that much slack. it may be a small% but every% helps. I would like people to respect the fact that people are trying to make a difference.
Oil field discoveries in Saudi Arabia in the last 4 years, estimate it's size to be as large as all of the reserves in the U.S. It's unfair to compare the size of the fields of Hibernia and Mars to total U.S. consumption. Those areas were chosen to supply certain areas and lower transportation costs. The math he should be showing us, is how long those reserves would supply a distinct area, then you see how much in reserves you need for the rest of the U.S. and look for those.
@6U4RD1AN Well, China is a country of 1.4 billion people. Approximately 300 million of them are what we would consider middle class. That's a fairly small percentage of the larger population, especially compared to the western countries. Let's call it a developing country then, as the media does. I appreciate your comment.
@jimbobanalbeats I was trying to tell you to go to the gapminder page to see the statistics in a nice way, but youtube didn't let me to write the name (gapminder*org) they have youtube videos too. The wealth distribution is still a problem, yes, if they manage to answer it, they have a great future, if not, they will probably implode.
@jimbobanalbeats ...it is not a matter of third or first world dude! ... the fact is that our species produced babies...and we have to consume less natural resources...
We need to do something *NOW*. NOW. Not tomorrow, not next week, not next year, NOW. Fuck! Catastrophe CAN be avoided! Band together and use your brains! While being peaceful...
one misleading example from the prof. is about hibernia reserves. the article did not say hibernia would fuel the usa for 50 years, but rather, i suspect that it will take 50 years of work to get that oil.
@solarviking who cares how many reserves there are! It doesn't matter how much oil we think is left, the point is that if and when its found, it will be consumed quickly and then what?
The point is that we can't have a steady rate of growth with a finite resource. China has already adopted the 1 child per family rule. Everyone else needs to follow suit. America, I'm looking at you!
sigh i was gonna comment almost the exact same thing
damn you for doing it before i did ;)
i think that's the most important message in the whole presentation. people are sheep, they must recycle ideas other feed them with no analysis whatsoever. it's frightening when you consider how sheep-people reproduce so much and thinkers tend to have a lower rate of reproduction.
But your right unfortunately. People tend to believe what the "experts" tell them without even making an effort to test whether their ideas are good are not. That's like letting your accountant do whatever he wants with your money and not having the slitest doubt that he might try to rip you off....
The growth rate of global population increase is around 1.1-1.7%. Doubling time 40-70 years.
So, are you ready to change your morals? Because in a hundred years we'll have 25billion people. In twohundred we'll have over 100billion people. You think japan looks crowded? Wait for the world to catch up and fill our empty space.
Are you ready to accept that we have to stop living long, and stop surviving? We literally, have to start dieing. End of story. Or find another planet, +3kyears.
The saddest part of this is that Nikola Tesla showed the world in the early 1900s how each one of us could just plug into the earth - wherever we are - and receive enough electricity to run ALL of our electrical needs indefinitely. They killed him and stole all of his research, used it for themselves and kept it from the public because free electricity makes $0.00 for Hydro companies and thus, $0.00 for gov't.
It's not that "experts" are dumb. It's that "experts" are paid off by the NWO power elite that don't want us to start going bonkers. You can't leave the system. Where you gonna go to live off the grid? All the land is owned. All the animals are genetically altered. All the water is polluted. Well then what are we supposed to do you ask? 2 choices: nothing, or fight the power elite. You're gonna die either way...
Prove it? Water is cleaner than it has ever been. Animals are genetically altered... yes it's called SELECTIVE BREEDING and it's been going on since the dawn of civilization!
Unlimited energy sources are out there!But Elite controllers don't want ppl to be free from the costs of energy,Go to LT-MAGNET-MOTORdotCOM and get the blueprints for a genuine magnet motor ,The revolution begins!
To update the picture. Since new awesome discoveries from Brazil's pre-salt oil layer, my country has now 100 billion barrels of probable reserves. That makes up for current (as of 2010) US consumption.... ...for just 15 years.
The oil producing giants' short term goal is to scrape up as much oil as possible, not taking into account that this is going against their long term goal, making money.
One has to get it into their heads that in the long run, it is not just in the interest of the whole world but rather in their own personal interst to find new energy sources.
alternative energy is already developed but locked away ,they're waiting to make all the money they can THEN they ill allow full energy source change. Besides, Tesla already knew that it is possible to have a fuel source that could never be expended but it's a non profit endeavor.
@vaginaflypaper It played fine for me just now; try checking back, sometimes you just get a quirky connection on a particular video for no discernible reason.
DrivenMind: There are those who have supported and promoted Dr. Bartlett's views for decades. We are called Commie leftist liberal treehugging chicken little scaremongers who should just grow up and join the "real" world. Get it?

Hello people.
i'm from Saudi Arabia, and here is what i know.
the Minister of Petroleum and Mineral Resources published a statement for a newspapers here in Saudi Arabia.
he said quote:
" the Kingdom can continue to produce crude oil at current levels for eighty years"
he actually said the word "current levels" in Arabic! for 80 years!
you can do the calculation and try to guess how many years really left ahead
i'm just sayin'....

I watched "Climategat 2-US Government Involved in Data Manipulation" and it is accurate. However, I don't see how it makes the data from this video--which was collected by completely different individuals who are in a completely different field (Geology)--false. None of this video makes any reference to global warming as "Climategat 2-US Government Involved in Data Manipulation" does. Instead, it is referencing population growth and potential energy deficiencies.

@TheHeurist
So I do admit that there have been climatologists who have produced inaccurate and biased data. However, there have been very very few of them. Most statistics we see put up on news stations are very subjective and lack a scientific method in data collection.
There is a consensus among the scientific community that "climate change" is occurring. These scientists do not, on the other hand, know what the result of climate change will be...

So the choice is clear TheHeurist... Are you going to reject the majority of scientific conclusions in favor of what our obviously subjective news outlets tell you? Or are you going to believe the scientists who created many of the luxuries you enjoy today--including your automobiles, planes and power plants?
All I ask is that you don't give in to the dualities--such either completely accepting all information in regard to climate change or completely dismissing it.
contactbrewer 6 months ago in playlist The Most IMPORTANT Video You'll Ever See
@TheHeurist
All I ask is that you don't simply accept the conclusions or data from this video or that video. Do your research. Most of my knowledge regarding climate change is that there are very few reported incidences of data manipulation--although they do exist.
The more you do your research and gain knowledge, the more you will realize how little you know. Most climatologists admit that they don't know exactly what climate change will do or how rapidly changes will occur.

The "Global Warming And the Carbon Tax Scam" video is absolutely right about there being a whole industry which has been created out of the climate change debate. The industry itself, including the "green movement," has become very distorted and often doesn't lead by example.
The weird part is, the video you suggested uses the IPCC as an example of an organization which is not strictly composed of scientists.
contactbrewer 5 months ago
This is very interesting. I didn't know about this and much of my research on climate change doesn't seem to emphasize one scientific organization or journal. Instead, I see all of the evidence presented, and there is a clear consensus to be seen. Scientists are the last people on earth to make a plan to lie about something. Politicians and corporations are the first to do so.

good video. but you don't understand ethanol completely. it is producing more energy than it takes to make. it does have limits. but it is making a difference. last years production was 13 Billion gallons in the US. it can be produced without fossil fuel inputs, it would be harder but it is possible. i can't think of any other OPEC country that could pick up that much slack. it may be a small% but every% helps. I would like people to respect the fact that people are trying to make a difference.

Oil field discoveries in Saudi Arabia in the last 4 years, estimate it's size to be as large as all of the reserves in the U.S. It's unfair to compare the size of the fields of Hibernia and Mars to total U.S. consumption. Those areas were chosen to supply certain areas and lower transportation costs. The math he should be showing us, is how long those reserves would supply a distinct area, then you see how much in reserves you need for the rest of the U.S. and look for those.
