A Crude Awakening: The Oil Crash - trailer

"The Age of Oil — 100-plus years of astonishing economic growth made possible by cheap, abundant oil — could be ending without our really being aware of it. Oil is a finite commodity. At some point even the vast reservoirs of Saudi Arabia will run dry. But before that happens there will come a day when oil production 'peaks,' when demand overtakes supply (and never looks back), resulting in large and possibly catastrophic price increases that could make today's $60-a-barrel oil look like chump change...

The big sign of Peak Oil will be back to back to back to back recessions that we never seem to get out of. No cheap oil = No growth

@moniequa

You have sacrificed that unique human ability to survey our surroundings and plan ahead. Unlike the animals, we can count and measure and plan and prepare for various disasters. But you want to react ONLY when you actually see the price of oil triple and the rationing begin. Oh well. That's your choice.

For anyone else, the science is all out there. The figures don't lie, even if Moniequa does.

peak oil is over - may the days of peace come soon, where we can live without this bunch of moneymaking destroyers

Mabey you just need to study for a job in renewable energy?

I firmly believe nowadays that this whole financial mess we are in is mostly about our energy, or better said the price of our energy.

That's why our politicians have only talked total rubbish for the last 3 years cause they don't have a solution.

This mess isnt just about some greedy financial terrorists who crashed the economy, the problem is much deeper then that, and if youve seen this doc you know what i mean.

@HorseCents lol cool story bro.

Typical Godless liberal fear-mongering scarcity propaganda.

When God created the Earth He made certain that Man would have enough energy to last until The Rapture. Harold Camping had the date all wrong but the principle is sound.

Did you know that the root of the word SCIENCE is SÉANCE, meaning it's a black art and can't be trusted? Now you do!

@acavideo The steady-state system is a myth, at least as it applies to our society today. No matter what we do, our society will collapse, period. The only truly sustainable societies are tribal, hunter-gatherer. Even farming societies eventually collapse for the simple reason that they always lead to a cycle of population growth which will continue exponentially until it busts.

@begoneyoubum If you watch the film they will talk about how the countries lie about the actual number of barrels they produce. I really can't explain the whole thing but we talked about it in my AP history.

[begoneyoubum]

So how long do we have? All you bumbling oaf's talk a lot about it but when will the poo hit the fan!

Come on now man! Let's have some dates from you people! When will it really break open?
