  • The Truth About Fossil Fuels and Renewable Energy [View article]
    sethmcs:

    Hubbert predicted peak oil for the US, and his prediction, universally considered the rantings of a lunatic at the time, proved to be dead on accurate.

    By using the same methodology, peak oil has been predicted on a global level, but of course the precise date is subject to some dispute, some say it occurred in 2005 while others contend it has yet to occur; extreme optimistst predict it will be 10-20 years before it occurs.

    Real bell curves don't tend to be perfectly smooth mathematical functions so the actual date of peak oil could vary by a few years depending on glitches in the oil supply curve.

    Anyone like you who does not believe in peak oil is today's version of a flat earther.
