Peak oil is history!

http://cluborlov.blogspot.com/2010/11/peak-oil-is-history.html

For anyone who reads this clear analysis of peak oil and as well 
the implications for the future.
I can assure you that it will clarify the issue and give you some sense of direction.

I am concluding it maybe the most concise and actually helpful analysis i have read on
the subject of Peak oil, or more accurately.... in application: Peak energy!
I think i have 'read some' of all the significant authors who write on this subject as they tend to be featured on a few sites
 or their significant books are easily available.
And Orlov is not within the 'Transition movement" which is.... very popular and uplifting.... and i consider naive,
 as well as factually misleading.

I am aware that the people i forward articles on 'peak' subjects fall into obvious categories such as:
The Oh well! But lets be frank the: Oh Well's, gave it up long ago.
or maybe the: Too much to consider, and besides what can i do about profound issues with implications
of a complete energy paradigm shift within the near future?
Then a few folks will express:  Dang! And as well offer a joke and look for a place to point too.
Some are going to rely on someone or something to take care of them. This includes the truly dippy, 
who will tell us about the second coming or Apocalypse and maybe that will be dressed in fantasy Mayan costume.

But for those and their are those who may want to consider what we may be able to do
as this happens. This maybe the best advise i have read so far.

And yes, I'm sure Orlov is well aware that the issues of: social collapse, peak food and water are not being mentioned 
Also, the issue of Climate Change, and it's implications.
But even so, this may open a few minds to the issues of: Collapse, and which Orlov is the comparative expert.
Though as you will notice he is not shabby when it comes to presenting possibilities within the energy issues.

This article on this site is being offered in a few languages, but fortunately for most of us English is one of those offered..
