Peak Oil At NSW Parliament House
Posted by Big Gav
Sydney Peak Oil has announced a public community forum on peak oil.
Peak oil begins with an undeniable truth – that oil is a finite resource. The question is: when will oil begin to run out? When will demand for oil outstrip supply? What are the consequences? The theory of peak oil, or Hubbert’s Peak, suggests that the high-point of oil production is imminent and that the aftermath could be disastrous. Or is a smooth transition to a post-oil world possible? This public community forum will explore the issues that arise from the likely changes to our future energy-use profile.
Speakers
* Professor Ian Lowe - Griffith University, President of Australian Conservation Foundation
* Greens MLC Ian Cohen
* Rowan Tucker-Evans - Sydney Peak Oil Group
If you haven’t heard about peak oil, now is the time to find out. This forum is for anyone who drives a car, eats... or lives.
Venue
Tuesday November 15, 6pm
