Chapter eighteen – Environmental Data: The complete human race reached 3 billion in 1960, as well as currently some-more than twice which series of people live upon earth with fast expansion approaching to go on in a future. Unfortunately, an augmenting race increases a demand for earth’s healthy resources. In this chapter, Dr. Chris Martenson explains which given a easiest-to-extract, many abounding healthy resources have been extracted first, a flourishing race will have to understanding with scarce, energy-consuming, low-grade resource accessibility in a nearby future. www.chrismartenson.com

In the future, landfills will be mined for all the metals (like copper, aluminum, steel, etc.) and other raw materials they contain.
that’s the linking I needed to get the bigger picture…
…thanks!
This video freezes on me at 4:09 for some reason. I read the transcript available by clicking on the button near the lower right of the screen. It was well worth it. I hope the freeze problem is fixed soon.
It doesn’t account for changes in technology. True, resources are limited, but we improve technologies and find alternatives. Same doom’s day scenarios were being told in the 1970′s, look it up, according to them we should be cannibal and living in huts. They did not account for technological advancements, which understandably is very hard to do.

A single oilfield is meaningless. The discoveries off the coast of Brazil are the most challenging oil fields ever discovered and won’t be produced for at least 10 possibly 20 years. By then we will have lost so much existing production that it will only slightly slow the decent.
You are talking more like 4 or 5 years at 20mb/d and you couldn’t extract 20mb/d even if you wanted to.
I don’t know if you’re referencing as to me being stupid because I think what this guy is saying is right or wrong. I think he’s right though.
Don’t let ignorance slow you down.
Hey man fuck it, I quit telling people about it because everyone starts thinking your a left wing conspiracy nut so fuck em. They’ll see how well all of their cheap plastic shit tastes when they’re starving to death. I mean, even my best friend was like “I don’t care about that shit”, so I was straight up like, well when you want me to share my emergency rations with you and I don’t, just know I warned you and it’s a matter of survival at this point. I hope the dollar in your pocket tastes good
Chris has good music and and good punches. He beat the CRAP out of out of some dude yesterday night in NYC after he called him a nigger , the guy was demolished. TMZ posted the video at tmzfights. com
It’s not depressing. It’s a kick in the ass! So get going!
This is my #1 recommended video set anywhere, and I am constantly recommending it – but still too few views. Meanwhile I’ve moved from the USA to a rural village in Asia, and am living on less land that most neighbors, but doing well with traditional organic farming methods, Brahma manure for fertilizer etc. Solar and wind energy will be in supply for a long time, if only people would move to these quickly…
men.. this is all so overwhelming that is hard not to get depressed!
i would like to give you a round of a plase
It’s unsettling.
such important videos and yet only 20,000 views? A fucking laughing cat video on youtube gets more views. we are all seriously screwed.
The simple truth right now is that there’s going to be TOO DAMN MANY BABIES and TOO DAMN MANY ADULTS to endure a energy supply bottom out. The net result, if not horribly bloody high-body-count wasteful war, will be an impenetrable wall of massive death if everyone decides to keep barreling along at a moronic rate.
somehow, I hope it is.
Not a fan of the hybrid car, personally. Hydrogen seems like it’s not worth it, too difficult to use. Anyone check out “Who killed teh electric car”?
Natural gas prices just hit 7 year lows due to a new method of extraction and low electricity demand. Not only is it a substitute for coal in generating electricity, but can also be used for cars as it is in some countries for taxis and in the US for buses. They’re actually starting to export it to countries than use LNG vehicles because they’re running out of storage space.
Interesting…today I found a new article about how hybrid car production is feeling the pinch of needing rare earth metals. Just as we are trying to get away from gasoline.
MORE CARS… WANT MORE ^^ camaro plx
this guy is a genius the coal graph was amazing.
Thats fine, just recycle them, they are still here on earth mostly, just in various modified form.
