Global Energy Resources Overview
Kjell Aleklett, President of the Association for the Study of Peak Oil and Gas, has a very accessible but definitely information-rich lecture on global energy supplies.
Topics he covers:
- how was oil made
- where it is found in the world and where it is unlikely to be found in significant quantities
- the desperate measures oil companies are going through to bring oil to market
- the giant oil fields and how they determine our oil fate
- peaking of natural gas
- peaking of coal
- whether there is enough fossil fuel to produce any of the IPCC climate change scenarios
Must viewing for anyone interested in their future on this planet.
