The climate has been changing since day one & it will continue to change, with or without us!!!
Today’s real issue is ENERGY, so let’s get together and fix this while we still can
The end of the Fossil Fuel era is upon us so what are we going to do next-?
Energy information Administration Official Energy Statistics from the US government
http://www.eia.doe.gov/oiaf/forecasting.html
The above report indicates that the US will be using primarily oil as our main energy source through 2030.
The world's total declared reserves are 1,317,400,000,000 barrels (January 2007).
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oil_reserves
World oil consumption 2005 is 80,290,000 barrels per day or 29,305,850,000 per year
https://www.cia.gov/library/publications/the-world-factbook/rankorder/2174rank.html
Dividing annual consumption into total reserves gives us 44.9 years of oil supply at the current consumption rate.
That was eleven (11)years ago, we are not changing our habits and this spells doom for us all.
Do you have any suggestions--?
Libya will be an interesting place to watch.
· Libya’s current production rate is 1.8 million barrels of oil a day
· At that rate Libya will exhaust all its reserves within 63 years
· Existing oil fields undergoing a 7–8% decline rate
They have highways and freeways and use cars and trucks just like the rest of us do.
But up until now gas was pretty much free.
If there is going to be a drive to manufacture electric and hybrid cars for local consumption
now is the time for Libya to use its cash reserves and invest in local production of the next generation power systems.
At least in the US we have the cash and will to build a new future for America and the
people are willing to do their part too. Anyway
I hope people are trying to think this through?
