The End of Suburbia - 52 minute documentary on peak oil

@noodles91380 True but the question is. When will this peak be reach? Will it be in this lifetime or the next generation? If energy consumption is faster than energy creation/output, then this might not be propaganda after all. Yes, I do believe in finite resources.

2 words...Nikola Tesla..
4 words...This movie is propaganda..

Fear mongering bastards.

Even if there are billions of gallons untouched, how does that make Peak Oil a myth? It is a finite resource, is it not? If you believe it is a finite resource, than a peak exists, even if it's many many years away. If you do not believe it is a finite resource, than you are foolish.

Great video!! I do believe these people were a little optimistic seeing all fossil fuels will be gone in less than 30 - 40 years (oil, natuaral gas, and coal) If you do not believe this just use wiki they do most the math for you. Oh,and less than 8 years left in US oil reserves. hard to defend ourelves running on a military with no oil, When will our government decide to make sure that does not happen. last 7 years????

I Dare say I am not very optimistic

99 , THINKS THAT THIS IS BS .. OK BYE 99

It is not BS. However they may be exaggerating the time frame because they are interested parties.

I can see a few reasons for the plentiful gas right now:
1. When an oil field is almost empty it releases gas - and a lot of old fields are almost empty
2. There has been massive investment in producing gas from small sources to make up for the missing oil

The extraction profile of gas is such that it can go to max output in a moment - however - when its empty the decline is just a steep - minus 30% a year is not uncommon

However, this is likely to only last a few years.

Energy Technology&Ecology is the key to a sustainable future.

I've often heard that natural gas supplies are on the decline as this video seems to confirm. Does anyone have an explanation for T. Boone Pickens claims that we are "awash" in natural gas???

Because he can get rich off of it. Follow the money.
