Superb, sober, highly informative energy round table.

[Guest]

Superb overview of the energy predicament's imminence. If you only allocate one hour to listen to any synopsis of the issue of flat global petroleum production growth, and it's implications, this round table is it.

Dr. Robert Hirsch and Jeffrey Rubin provide excellent additional perspectives to the discussion. Inflation, decoupling, myths and real facts on production and reserves, demand destruction, financial implications - all are discussed very soberly, and with great detail and clarity.

Re: Superb, sober, highly informative energy round table.

Did 30 mins,i heard it before!

Look until there is a MAJOR shock....and suddenly its HARD to GET HOLD OF..............People will not take notice.

But lots of small answer are here, did you know that if a car has a DSG (Duel Clutch gearbox) it improve fuel con by 22%!

There are a large number of things we can do:-
Stop/Start
DSG
Hybrid (quick charge/discharge type)
Diesel (make it from Bio or Coal)

Things need to change, but will..............but Oil will cost more.

BTW Mike, What is a DSG, exactly? Automatic or manual, can it be retrofitted?
