Peak Oil Inevitable
"... Keeping America competitive requires affordable energy. And here we have a serious problem: America is addicted to oil, which is often imported from unstable parts of the world ..."
(State of the Union address by US president George W Bush, January 2006)
Not just America (USA) is addicted.
By the end of 2005 the world consumed 84 million barrels of oil every day.
One barrel is 159 litres, which is approximately the weight of two grown-up human beings.
A supertanker can carry about 2 million barrels of oil.
Every day we fill, ship and empty 40 times such a supertanker.
84 million barrels is about 12 times the volume of the empire state building.
Every minute we empty a floor of the Empire State Building.
The end of oil is inevitable.
What if we cannot change our consumer behaviour before we run out of oil?
Will rationality save us?
Or do we rely on being lucky?
Will we survive the 21st century?
"Peak Oil Inevitable" is a documentary movie about the antagonism of human beings and
its devastating consequences.
