or join us in person to participate https://meet.liberit.ca/peakoilchat
Summary of what to expect below:
Gail Tverberg and Simon Michaux return to Peak Oil Chat for
two complementary presentations on the physical limits now
confronting the global economy and the geopolitical
consequences that may follow.
Gail Tverberg: How Limits to Growth Are Playing Out Today More
than 50 years after The Limits to Growth was published in
1972, Gail will examine updated data showing how closely
important global trends have tracked the scenarios explored in
the original work. She will discuss why the limits we are
encountering may unfold differently from the conventional
picture of Peak Oil, and what declining resource availability,
industrial constraints, debt and economic contraction could
mean for the wider economy. Gail has spent about 20 years
researching the connections between energy, resource
depletion, economics and complex systems through her work at
OurFiniteWorld.com.
Simon Michaux: BRICS, the West and the Struggle for
Commodities Simon will present new data on the growing
BRICS-West geopolitical confrontation and place it in the
context of physical resource limits. His presentation will
examine the strategic importance of controlling commodities
and the trade routes used to move them, the West's changing
relationship with oil and gas, and why food and other
essential resources may become increasingly important
geopolitical constraints.
Together, the presentations ask a larger question: What
happens to economics and geopolitics when continued material
growth becomes increasingly difficult? Presentations will be
followed by discussion and questions.
See you there,
Andrii Zvorygin
