Pat Murphy — Beyond Sustainability: Surviving Peak Oil – 4/4
Posted by admin as Fuel Prices
http://localfuture.org
How long can this global oil supply level be maintained? When will the decline in oil supply begin? How will that impact already rising gasoline prices, oil prices, food prices and the struggling state of the world economy?
To address shrinking fossil fuel supplies, increasing CO2 emissions, and rising global inequity we need to make immediate and drastic cuts to our energy use. Learn about viable curtailment strategies for food, housing, and transportation, why most “sustainable” and “green” techniques are inadequate, and how we can create cooperative low-energy communities to survive.
Pat Murphy is the Executive Director of Community Solutions in Yellow Springs, Ohio, co-writer and co-producer of the film, “The Power of Community: How Cuba Survived Peak Oil” (2006) and author of the forthcoming book “Plan C: Community Survival Strategies for Peak Oil and Climate Change.”
The International Conference on Peak Oil and Climate Change: Paths to Sustainability explores the root cause of rising gas prices, global warming, biodiversity loss and other indicators of global unsustainability.

Ron Paul On high Gas Price – Peak OiL

Natural gas is a gaseous fossil fuel consisting primarily of methane but including significant quantities of ethane, propane, butane, and pentane—heavier hydrocarbons removed prior to use as a consumer fuel —as well as carbon dioxide, nitrogen, helium and hydrogen sulfide.[1]
Fossil natural gas is found in oil fields (associated) either dissolved or isolated in natural gas fields (non-associated), and in coal beds (as coalbed methane).
When methane-rich gases are produced by the anaerobic decay of non-fossil organic material (biomass), these are referred to as biogas (or natural biogas). Sources of biogas include swamps, marshes, and landfills (see landfill gas), as well as sewage sludge and manure by way of anaerobic digesters, in addition to enteric fermentation particularly in cattle.
Since natural gas is not a pure product, when non-associated gas is extracted from a field under supercritical (pressure/temperature) conditions, it may partially condense upon isothermic depressurizing–an effect called retrograde condensation. The liquids thus formed may get trapped by depositing in the pores of the gas reservoir. One method to deal with this problem is to reinject dried gas free of condensate to maintain the underground pressure and to allow reevaporation and extraction of condensates.
Natural gas is often informally referred to as simply gas, especially when compared to other energy sources such as electricity. Before natural gas can be used as a fuel, it must undergo extensive processing to remove almost all materials other than methane. The by-products of that processing include ethane, propane, butanes, pentanes and higher molecular weight hydrocarbons, elemental sulfur, and sometimes helium and nitrogen.

Money Creation & Destruction, Gas Prices, Peak Oil & the Economic Crisis
Posted by admin as Fuel Prices
Understanding money creation and destruction is essential for those who hope to plan for the future.
Changing gas prices impact the flow of money, and ultimately, the money supply and velocity of money. Long term gas price changes, driven by oil prices, are subject to global peak oil extraction.
The run up of oil and gasoline prices from 2005 to 2008 caused a major stress on the economic system, and ultimately was the leading or at least contributing factor to the economic crisis.
Rising oil prices from their lowest levels at under $10 per barrel led to an era of relaxation of loan and mortgage requirements. While this appears to have helped to support the economy for a time, it led to a great maxing out of credit, which then set up a system that was ripe to fail due to any outside stress, such as the failure of the global oil extraction rate to rise.
The resulting economic crisis, due to peak oil and then peak money creation, signals that our current privately-owned, interest-penalty based, money system will not function in this new area of peaking and declining oil supply.
The solution is an entirely different economic model, which focuses on the creation of local food, energy, and credit money, which can be resilient despite innevitable changes in available oil and other resources.
Educator Aaron Wissner presents basic of money and explains how the combination of resource limits for oil combined with relaxed money creation (lending) standards, led to peak money creation, and in turn to an economic crisis.
This is the middle section of a 30 minute talk on money, oil, the environment, and our local future.
