Complacency and the Last Days of Oil Suburbia
A conversion could not be done over night. A conversion from running vehicles on water opposed to fossil fuels, or other alternative energy sources. To date the technology exists to drive 100 miles on 4 ounces of water.
The ever so sour subject of Iraq and it WMD take a clearer turn when the fact the Saddam had switched to from dollars to Euros with its oil transactions 6 months prior to being taken down. Now we are going after Iran’s nuclear development. Its ironic Iran is in the process of doing the very same conversion. Or maybe not so ironic.
The world’s peak oil situation seems to have started frenzy. The question I have is why. Yes it is tied in to global economy, but the bottom line is civilization could survive. Infact there will be a day it will have to. The rest of Earth aside why is there not preparations happening now. Instead the preparations seem to be to grasp as much of the bottom peak reserve as possible. Are suburbia and its dwindling days enough for the complacency that is present to allow barons to continue control?
