"Norská „pohádka“ začala v roce 1975, kdy se Norsko proměnilo z dovozce ve vývozce ropy. Od té doby se ropa, plyn a technologie s nimi spojené staly důležitým vývozním artiklem. Na žebříčku největších vývozců zemního plynu patří Norsku třetí příčka, ve vývozu ropy je osmé." ¨

VSOUKOLOHLOR: naprosto výborný text z toho druida je tenhle:
The Archdruid Report: The Politics of Time's Shape
http://thearchdruidreport.blogspot.cz/2013/05/the-politics-of-times-shape.html
... nejspíš odměna pro mě za pokus oslavit včerejší Buddhovy narozeniny (první jarní úplněk) uspořádáním psytrance party poháněné solární energií (bohužel bylo pod mrakem, ale stejně jsme trochu dobíjeli)

je to crosspost asi do pěti fór, ale ten text je tak dobrý, že to možná přeložím do češtiny: This is one of the core reasons, I’ve come to believe, that peak oil has been the red-haired stepchild of the environmental movement since the contemporary peak oil scene began to emerge in the late 1990s. There have been any number of attempts to force it into a Joachimist patterm—think of all the attempts to claim that we can overcome the challenge of peak oil through some great collective leap to a better world—or an Augustinian one—think of all the attempts to extract a satisfyingly sudden cataclysm from the long slow downward arc of fossil fuel depletion—but the great collective leaps have proven embarrassingly out of reach, and the sudden cataclysms contrast awkwardly with the reality of rising energy costs, disintegrating infrastructure, and economic dysfunction that peak oil is helping to bring about right now. If peak oil and the wider impact of the limits to growth define the future we actually face, both the winners and the losers are out of luck.

Peak oil, climate change and pipeline geopolitics driving Syria conflict | Nafeez Ahmed | Environment | guardian.co.uk

Back in the year 2000, the IEA divined that by 2010, liquid fuel production worldwide would reach 95.8 million barrels per day (mbpd). The actual 2010 number was 87.1 mbpd. The agency further forecast an average daily oil price of $28.25 per barrel (adjusted for inflation). The actual average daily price of oil traded on the New York Mercantile Exchange in 2010 was $79.61.
...
So, what made the IEA so sanguine about oil supply growth in the year 2000? It cited the revolution taking place in deepwater drilling technology which was expected to allow the extraction of oil supplies ample for the world's needs for decades to come. But, deepwater drilling has turned out to be more challenging than anticipated and has not produced the bounty the IEA imagined it would. This is not to say that it hasn't been a critical adjunct to world oil supplies. It's just that deepwater oil production hasn't been able both to make up for declines in production elsewhere AND grow supplies beyond that--something that has resulted in a bumpy plateau for world oil production (crude plus lease condensate) starting in 2005.
