Pondering the Fate of an Oil Exporter: Squandering One's Inheritance Cheaply [View article]
Good article. but is is based on a VERY COMMON MYTH:
"if one had converted the built-up years of oil revenue to new productive capacity in energy."
The problem is that renewable energy is a myth.
Renewables yield electric energy and 80 years of trying and no easy way to convert this into powering tractors, combines, trucks, ships, and airplanes. Likewise, algae oil and veggie oils are a myth in terms of solving the liquid fuels crisis.
Wake up folks, time to prepare for Peak Oil impacts.
Mexico: Running Out of Oil and Options [View article]
I live and farming in Mexico and taught Mexican politics at the University of New Hampshire. Mexican Oil exports are forecasted to end by late 2010. 40 % of federal revenues come from oil export sales. Mexico will experience inflation, unemployment, and greater social problems. I moved here knowing all of this. Where I am living is very sustainable and of the crime problems exist here so far. Not far in the future, the U.S. will experience the same problems. I used to live in NH-USA, but moved to a sustainable place. Anyone interested in relocating to a nice, pretty, sustainable area with a good climate and good soil?
