Do you really believe that could be an accurate forcast?

As shown I feel that chart is totally unrealistic as a prediction. Declining oil production will cause more than enough turmoil. No way will carbon sequestration be phased in if coal is also peaking.

With oil and possible gas production also declining any politician foolish enough to propose sacrificing 20-25% of the remaining energy available from coal and natural gas on the alter of global warming would rightfully get thrown out in the next election if not before.

I have trouble keeping up with all the posts on PO. What has happened to Dave Rutledge post about linking PO to declining CO2 driving term for global warming? I thought he showed that there really isn't a global warming problem because fossil fuel production decline will happen first in about 2070, as I recall. Or did I miss a post that demolished his argument?

Given the feedback effects already becoming apparent, we do not have the luxury of waiting until 2070; we may be in trouble because we sat on our hands until 2007.
