Peak Oil and the Decline of America
Peak oil has been reached, and every day that we continue to depend on oil for all our production needs is another day we dig ourselves and our offspring into a hole.
Unless something extremely innovative is devised to save modern civilization from demise, INFINITE growth will Collide with FINITE energy and our way of life will collapse.
I am not sure if this will happen in my lifetime, but I feel it will, Once people understand the situation we are in, things will progress quickly. Life will become much more localized, a majority of city dwellers will perish due to food shortages, lack of fresh water and energy, and the looting and riots that these situations will cause.
