2030 sounds like a classic Late Peaker to me. He's saying "yes, conventional Crude has peaked, but we'll be able to make up the difference with other liquids/non-conventional sources".
Could you provide a link to some of your work Bellistner?
I had to think about what you meant here for a moment, but I then came to the conclusion that you believe that unless someone has been 'published' they are not allowed to critisise. If that's the case, almost no one would be qualified to comment on anyone or anything.
Not at all. I'm actually looking for more people to get involved in ASPO-Brisbane. We're having our next meeting tomorrow at the State Library. Look me up on the ASPO-Oz website and call/email me for the details. Happy to get you involved straight away in our work on:
1. Submission on the South East Queensland Regional Plan.
2. Consultation workshops and submission for the Federal Government Energy White Paper.
3. Various public awareness events and presentations.
All you have to do is turn up and offer to help out. Constructive criticism is always welcome, but there is no hand-wringing allowed. Looking forward to hearing from you.
Why oh why do people always have these meetings when i'm working!? :( :D
(OK, apart from the unsociable hours I work...)
1. I've got a Light Rail Network I've 'built' in Google Earth you can include, if you'd like. Estimated cost of some $200bn, but that's less than half the Petrol Subsudy for last year, and is a lot cheaper than running Heavy Rail to Redcliffe (something Team Anna isn't really interested in anyway...)
2. This is the one chaired by Marn, and 'assisted' by all the Carbon-and-oil-intensive industries, right?
Long gentle plateau still = no growth which still means big problems.
Waht conclusions do you think the committee had made before it even asked for submissions?
That PO isn't a short-term problem. Maybe I'm just being cynical, and I hope I'm wrong about them. If I am wrong, they they do conclude that there's a problem, their recommendations will be ignored anyway. :(
