*Its not Climate Change that is so Immediate. Its Peak Oil* The Solution is the same, but as you are closing your eyes and covering your ears and running swiftly from the room... it is 2 things not ONE which you need not be ignoring, and Peak Oil is not something hypothetical.

I am just making a statement. This analysis shows that since 2009, a considerably larger proportion of the world’s total oil production is occurring in countries that may be at or past peak production. Only 12 countries were in 2010 still pushing oil production past previous highs. Saudi Arabia is a bit of a question mark – it produced 10% less than its peak year (2005) in 2010, but claims that it has ample spare capacity and reserves to push beyond the old highs. It says this every year and every decade. As does all of OPEC. The 2010 data may also suffer from the after-effects of the financial crisis, although world oil prices and production did rebound sharply in late 2009 and 2010. While the 2012 data will show higher total world production, will they show increasing reliance on a shrinking number of growing producers?

If current global production just remains steady, by 2030 up to 50-60% of all oil production worldwide will be coming from the Persian Gulf (it now accounts for 32% of world oil production).
