内容简介：
Oil and Gas are finite fossil fuels from the geological past that are inevitably subject to depletion. Eventually we must run out, but what matters more is the inevitable peak of production when growth gives way to decline. The wider implications of this historic discontinuity are colossal. Understanding depletion is not difficult, but public data on production and reserves are very unreliable. This book attempts to present more realistic estimates and definitions than are available elsewhere.Colin Campbell, author of the highly acclaimed "The Coming Oil Crisis," is a leading member of the growing number of experts whose models of depletion show that the world will reach peak within about ten years. After peak comes increasing scarcity, as production can no longer meet demand. The implications for Mankind are huge, opening an entirely new world.
