TIMELINE: PATH TO PANDEMONIUM by Stan Goff
- The waste of life and limb in America's latest Iraq War has been escalating wildly under Paul Bremer's watch. A few minutes with any text of Roman history makes it all too clear that the job of a proconsul is to keep his assigned imperial province quiet – but don't look to the Bush people for historical perspective. In this hard hitting and moving piece, Stan Goff, FTW Military and Veteran's Affairs Editor, reminds us that:"It is always important to ask why we start history when." When we do, "things take on a brand new aspect."

BLOOD IN THE WATER, (Watergate II)
Just as in 1972-4 the press and the powers that be are allowing the Bush administration to hang themselves with their own statements. The July 11 confession from DCI George Tenet may have doomed the Bush administration. The cancer growing on the presidency will eat All the King's Men until Bush himself is consumed. There is blood in the water and the feeding frenzy has begun. Rice and Cheney have already been singled out as the next targets.

BEYOND BUSH - Part I
Powers above the White House are deciding that it's time for the Bush gang to go. As a Watergate-style take down is being meticulously put into place, the question is not whether the Bush Administration will be removed before or after the 2004 election. The important questions are whether Bush's successor will address 9/11, Peak Oil, civil liberties, or any of the critical issues. What is being done even now to control the challengers in the Presidential election? A clandestine drama is unfolding and we'll help you understand it. This special free series is a must-read going into 2004.

$380 Oil? BANKS TALK OIL DEPLETION - by Michael Kane
Banks are run by economists and business majors, not scientists. That these prestigious financial institutions are making any statement even hinting at peak oil is nothing short of a miracle. Global energy depletion and its implications for modern civilization flies in the face of their most cherished pet economic theories. That they are talking about it at all means that they can no longer ignore it. Now they will try to manage the problem so as to provide themselves with the greatest profits. There is no talk about financing research into substitutes, nor any mention of preparing for what is to follow. Their sole interest is in using the rising price of petroleum (due to depletion) to make a fast buck. Their actions will likely exacerbate the discrepancy between supply and demand along with the ensuing economic depression, while making it more difficult for the general public to prepare for the post-peak world. And amid all the confusion and obfuscation, it will probably appear to much of the public that this whole crisis was produced through the contrivance of the oil companies and other entrepreneurs.

Renewables PART 2: Emphasizing Proximity - by Michael Kane
Clearly, a massive program of renewable energy construction is in order. But it is just as clear that neither the federal government nor the majority of American citizens has the insight or the will to undertake such a program - and someday soon (given the American monetary position in the world system), they may not even have the capital. John C. Pennie and others like him deserve respect for their prudence and foresight, and for the small but real contribution their renewables make to the environmental situation -- but their projects have little to do with the national emergency that FTW expects in the middle term. -JAH

From Adam Porter at BBC - International Energy Agency Proposes Ban-Rationing-Enforced Quotas on Oil Consumption - Measures Would Apply in US
I had to read this story twice to understand its import for all of us. This should have been the number one story on every network and on the front page of every paper. Even as the hubris of the mind-numbing mass media is telling us there's only a slight problem with oil, the International Energy Agency is preparing measures that could result in police-enforced driving bans, rationing and quotas here in the US. It is clear that the IEA admits that some kind of immediate and drastic reduction in consumption is necessary to avoid a breakdown. This is the same IEA that has been saying for years, "Don't worry, There's plenty of oil." -MCR

No Free Lunch, Part 1: A Rebuttal of Thomas Gold's Claims for Abiotic Oil, by Jean Laherrere; edited by Dale Allen Pfeiffer
The following paper is a critique of the writings of Thomas Gold, written by Jean Laherrere. It is a scientific dialogue and contains many technical terms and references which may be nearly unfathomable to the layperson. However, it is a very important discussion because it lays bare many of the errors in Gold's arguments. Unfortunately, Thomas Gold is no longer with us to respond to these criticisms. However, this critique has been floating around in one form or another for a few years now, and it is not unreasonable to assume that Thomas Gold was aware of it.

As FTW has long predicted, oil and gas shortages would inevitably lead the US into short-term, knee-jerk, reversion to coal and nuclear options as means to put proverbial fingers into the leaking energy dike.

Peak Oil: Debate or Feud? - Historic J.P. Morgan Investor Conference Marks Official Recognition of Peak Oil Issues By Financial Planners by Suzan Mazur
- As the war on Iraq drives petroleum politics into the media mainstream, and gasoline prices hover over a summer that hasn't hit yet, more and more people are wondering whether there really is a geological miracle under the dunes. Those who believe world oil production has peaked, or will do so within the decade, argue with those who believe that oil is either inexhaustible or plentiful-but-inconvenient. In the latter case, they hope, technology will extend our reach far enough, and soon enough, that no major interruption of our industrial society will be necessary.
In this story Suzan Mazur takes us through the recent JP Morgan conference call, "Peak Oil: Fact or Fiction," with a sharp survey of the issues and a few key players.

Global Climate Change and Peak Oil: The Sword of Damocles Has Two Edges (Part I) by Dale Allen Pfeiffer
- Like the withdrawal symptoms endured by an addict, the effects of the coming petroleum crisis will ravage the American body politic and work necessary but painful changes in the life of the entire human community. "Peak oil" is the crisis of getting off petroleum: "Climate change" is the almost irreversible legacy of two hundred years of fossil fuel pollution. At their center is an oil economy bound to militarism by the petrodollar money system. But wealth and weapons are not much use under seven meters of melted glacial seawater. The education of the public is the key to a safer world - so we're educating each other. In part one of this story, FTW energy editor Dale Allen Pfeiffer sets out a detailed picture of the climate change issue and its paramount importance.

OIL SHORTAGES LOOK CERTAIN BY 2007; LNG TO THE RESCUE? By Dale Allen Pfeiffer
- It takes about four years to bring a new oil field online after discovery. The Petroleum Review has done a detailed analysis in a world where discovery of "mega" fields has fallen off to almost nothing and looked at what's coming online in the next few years. The conclusion: by 2007 the world will start to feel the real bite of Peak Oil. When it comes to LNG as a savior for the economy and home heating, every analysis says that whatever LNG arrives will be too little, too late. In both cases, the madness of the markets may actually produce temporary price drops which will remove the capital needed to fund alternatives right out of the equation and make the end result more deadly for everyone. Until the last second, false hopes will be fueled by market numbers hiding a grim truth.

NATURAL GAS UPDATES -- A DARK AND COLD FUTURE
With CNN reporting electrical power stations running out of natural gas; with officials warning of possible rolling blackouts; with almost all new homes heated by gas; and with Australia touting a $50 Bn LNG project while acknowledging a severe US energy crisis, at least five people have frozen to death because there was no heat. It is time to re-examine current natural gas production and reserve figures. Immediately after the CNN story, Connecticut officials tried to spin the shrotages by saying that power companies had sold their gas on the spot markets for profit. But, as FTW Energy Editor Dale Allen Pfeiffer reports, the numbers tell a completely different story. The crisis we have predicted is here, and it will only get worse. North America is almost out of gas.

China's rising grain prices could signal global food crisis - It's Happening Faster Than We Expected
The Agence France-Presse Is reporting that a major famine may be looming for China and that their purchases of US grain could multiply. The AFP Story does not address the serious Peak Oil and Gas issues raised by Dale Allen Pfeiffer in Eating Fossil Fuels or acknowledge that US grain harvests are falling. It does add the new wrinkle of how Global Warming (caused by burning oil and gas) continually reduces crop yields. On top of a recent CNN report announcing that soon the US will not be able to export any grain at all, it is clear that the effects of Peak Oil and Gas have begun to hit sooner than anyone expected.

DRAWING LESSONS FROM EXPERIENCE
Part I of a Special Two Part Series by Dale Allen Pfeiffer - We have been asked, so often, "What can the people do about Peak Oil?" Now FTW looks at the effects of drastic oil shortages in two different countries that have seen their supplies of oil and gas cut to almost nothing, North Korea and Cuba. One, North Korea, is a bitter lesson about what happens to complex systems when the oil and gas run out. Because its economy is top-down, like the US, its devastating failure to adapt is an omen for what we can look forward to, unless we change the financial incentive system and ownership in this country. On the other hand, Cuba, with rapidly increasing local ownership and control, with government decentralization and an imperative on maintaining standards of living in local areas is a model of success and the embodiment of Catherine Austin Fitts' Solari model for place-based equity and financing.

EATING FOSSIL FUELS
by Dale Allen Pfeiffer. As CNN, The Independent and Jane's Defence Weekly acknowledge the reality of Peak Oil and Gas, admitting that actual global reserves may be 80% less than previously reported, FTW publishes the most important and frightening story in its history. Impeccable research shows that US food production is requiring more and more hydrocarbon energy to produce less and less food. Until now, no one has really reported how much oil, gas and fresh water (pumped by hydrocarbons) we need to feed ourselves and the planet and what we can look forward to as the crisis starts to hit home.

IMMINENT PERIL (Part II)
In the conclusion of this two-part special series, FTW's Contributing Editor for Energy, Dale Allen Pfeiffer builds upon the wealth of scientific research describing the civilization-threatening consequences of Peak Oil and Gas by taking a look at the existing obstacles to effective change, as well as that hard look that mankind - and especially the industrialized nations - must take if the human race is to survive. He concludes that every "sacred cow" must be on the table, and that our only hope is making sustainability our number one priority.

FTW EXCLUSIVE, "Behind The Blackout"
Energy Investment Banker, Government Energy Advisor and CFR member Matthew Simmons offers candid and explosive observations on the Northeast Blackout, Peak Oil and Gas and tells the truth about America's energy supplies. Will politicians rise to the challenge? Simmons says, "What that means in the starkest possible terms is that we are no longer going to be able to grow. It's like with a human being who passes a certain age in life. Getting older does not mean the same thing as death. It means progressively diminishing capacity, a rapid decline, followed by a long tail."

IMMINENT PERIL (Part I)
The Northeast power grid failure demonstrates that the environment and Peak Oil and Gas have now formed a deadly alliance. Yet detailed, even prophetic warnings and analyses of energy issues are now coming true with stark precision. FTW's Contributing Editor for Energy, Dale Allen Pfeiffer, takes a detailed look at a record that foresaw the crises we are seeing today and leads us in the direction of paths that can help address energy issues that have just begun to eat at the fabric of society. The only way out comes from a complete revision of the way society works, starting with an overriding commitment to sustainability (a reduction of consumption) and a commitment to policy, which means political leadership. The latter is perhaps more scarce a commodity than natural gas.

Washington, DC Emergency Natural Gas Summit Hints At Coming Crisis

Environmental and Energy Activist Julian Darley Attends DOE Conference on Natural Gas and Questions Spencer Abraham. It's a mixture of myth, madness, denial and the inability of America's political and economic system to function in the real world when corporate priorities and political need drive decision making. As Peak Oil and Gas continue to intrude on the American psyche it is becoming clear that chaotic government responses may become the rule as geology and physics trump economic theory intended to support the markets.

Revealing Statements from a Bush Insider about Peak Oil and Natural Gas Depletion: FTW EXCLUSIVE
Bush energy advisor to the secret Energy Task Force headed by Dick Cheney before 9/11, Matthew Simmons, spoke candidly about Peak Oil at a recent Paris conference attended by FTW Editor Mike Ruppert. The transcribed remarks of this CFR member at this exclusive conference are chilling affirmations of the only issue driving world events since 9/11.
"The uh, I think basically that now, that peaking of oil will never be accurately predicted until after the fact. But the event will occur, and my analysis is leaning me more by the month, the worry that peaking is at hand; not years away. If it turns out I'm wrong, then I'm wrong. But if I'm right, the unforeseen consequences are devastating...But unfortunately the world has no Plan B if I'm right. The facts are too serious to ignore. Sadly the pessimist-optimist debate started too late."

One more time Canada gets screwed as tar sands oil production proves to be a non-cost effective and environmentally destructive concept.

Predicted Saudi Destabilization Nine Months Ago. As venerable progressive icons like Pacifica radio's "Democracy Now" belatedly discover the inconsistencies and lies of 9/11, the moves for the next conquests are already in play. Deployment of US troops for the Iraqi invasion was also the preparation for the seizure of Saudi Arabia's reserves, the largest in the world. And the smaller but more accessible prizes of West African reserves have become predictably threatened by rebel uprisings and - Surprise! - al Qaeda. Peak Oil is confirmed yet again.

Post-Soviet Lessons for a Post-American Century (PART ONE OF THREE) - By Dmitry Orlov - Special to From the Wilderness
Several months ago, Dmitry Orlov suggested writing an essay for www.survivingpeakoil.com relating how the people of Russia survived the collapse of the Soviet Union. I heartily welcomed the idea, and that was the last I heard from Dmitry for some time. I had just about given up on the article when it finally did appear a few weeks ago. In reading through this article, I quickly ascertained that Dmitry had far exceeded his goal. It was clear that this article deserved a larger readership than I could give it at survivingpeakoil.com. As science editor at From The Wilderness, I passed this article on to Mike and Jamey, and they readily agreed that it should be published by FTW.
Through his comparison and contrast of the Former Soviet Union to the U.S., Dmitry provides us with one of the most penetrating analyses of post-peak that I have read. This article is packed with original insights derived from personal experience. The picture which Dmitry paints is unsettling, but it is far better than jumping feet first into darkness. The impending breakdown of the US and world economies is here clarified to the point that you can begin to prepare for this eventuality. And this article gives some of the most practical suggestions on how to prepare. I gained a great deal from this article, and I would like to personally thank Dmitry for sharing it. -DAP
