"Peak Oil" and it's impact on all of us: Richard Heinberg, a member of the Core Faculty at the New College of California in Santa Rosa, is the author of several award-winning books, the latest 2 of which are The Party's Over: Oil, War and the Fate of Industrial Societies and Power Down: Options and Actions for a Post Carbon World. In this radio show we discuss the issues of "peak oil", meaning that the peak of cheap and affordable oil (and natural gas) has passed and the end of the industrial age is coming to an end. Though the exact date is unknown it is agreed by all the experts it will be within the next ten years, and Heinberg thinks it will be within the next 2 years or so, probably starting in the next few months. How we prepare for this as individuals and as a society will make a huge difference in the ease with which we make this transition and the amount of suffering experienced in this moving out of the "age of oil". The time to start was yesterday, but better late than never. His website is www.museletter.org. Recorded September 2004
