After three and one half years there have been 10,255 views of part 4. That shows how many people are aware and interested in confronting the truth about the future.

Peak oil, well lets put it this way. Peak Oil adds another large factor to the Drake Equation, one that earth, coincidentally, does not likely meet.

the top elites have an amazing plan to stop this whole population overgrowth problem, and over consuming, it's called "global genocide"

@seanlbrennan There are also breeder reactors, which create fissionable material and are far more likely to work in the near future than fusion

One of the great things oil has made possible is dropping a great big stinking load on top of another great big stinking load that some other guy left unflushed. You know some poor bastard is going to have to unclog that toilet and you're just glad it's not you. So you throw your last wipe on top of the fetid turd you've left and dispatch one last fart, sigh and buckle up feeling like a new man. Thank God for gas station bathrooms!

I think people will be in denial even after the peaks occur.. and they'll still call you 'green'...
I don't understand why I'm called green just because i think exponential growth is unsustainable. I'm a pretty selfish person.

The World Nuclear Association (WNA) says that we have 5.5 million tonnes of uranium, a current production at about 51k, and an annual growth projection of 2.4%(WNA). Using excel, based on these numbers, my estimate is that we will be out in 2060.
Using ENA's (european nuclear association) estimate of 3.3 million it will be in 2045 (again using excel). Don't take my word for it....research yourself.
Of course, I am willing to change this based on new information, ie: workable fusion plants.
