Crash Course: Chapter 17a – Peak Oil by Chris Martenson

admin — Wed, 02 Sep 2009 07:36:21 +0000

Chapter 17a – Peak Oil: Energy is the lifeblood of any economy and a steady supply of energy is necessary to maintain the status quo, while an ever-increasing supply is needed to grow an economy. In this chapter, Dr. Chris Martenson explains that Peak Oil is not a theory, rather it is a description of how oil production increases over time, reaches a peak, then declines. Evidence points to a global production peak in the near future, which is troubling since the U.S. imports two-thirds of its oil and relies on it to much of its transportation and food production needs.

A handful of giant oil companies that met secretly with Vice President Dick Cheney in 2001 are poised to get “unusual” no-bid contracts from the Iraqi government to boost production — further proof that the U.S. invaded Iraq for oil, says Congressman Dennis Kucinich.
