Hello Pete,
Well I am afraid Bob seems just to scan bulletins. I tried to explain to him
that it was a Report from the Australian Government Dept of Infrastructure,
Transport, Regional Development and titled Energy Future, Long Term Oil Supply
and Projections.
Yet he is still saying it was something I read in a newspaper.
I have the paper here and have read it. He is trying to say it is a 100 years
time problem yet I said the report concludes that global depletion will start
about 2017.
When a government dept produces a report like that and the government removes
it you have to take it seriously.
It is not a minor report it is 474 pages long.
It took me more than a week to read it.
We have a particular problem here in eastern Australia in that the refineries
are being closed, two in Sydney and one in Melbourne.
We are currently importing 100% of our petrol but they still produce diesel
I believe, but that may stop when they close.
We are currently very vulnerable and the Iran tension if escalated could cause
serious shortages. The oil price is currently $133 a barrel.
I think I can now see where Warren is coming from.
