As oil prices rise and crude oil supplies and refined products strain to keep up with demand, the public remains in the dark about the vast array of consequences of the looming crisis known as Peak Oil.
Dishonest reporting by OPEC countries and even major oil companies have contributed to the illusion that there is sufficient time before we 'run out of oil' to transition to a solution, whether it be coal, nuclear, cold fusion, hydrogen, other renewables or some
combination of the above.
At The Petrocollapse Conference we will ask:
* What are we facing now as the economy prepares to hit the wall known as resource limits? Will growth suddenly implode?
* What will be the effects of Peak Oil (a geological phenomenon) and petrocollapse (an economic and social phenomenon) on food supply and other services we depend on?
* What humane, ethical means are available to reduce the population (over the course of several generations) to a sustainable number?
* What other mitigation strategies are possible? Is there a "Plan B" to ease a transition to sustainable living in a world without plentiful energy and petroleum's materials?
For more information see www.petrocollapse.org
