False Summit פסגה כוזבת -ג'ורג'' מונביו


טעינו בקשר לשיא תפוקת הנפט יש מספיק  לטיגון עמוק של כדור הארץ.

We were wrong about peak oil: there’s enough in the ground to deep-fry the planet.
By George Monbiot, published in the Guardian 3rd July 2012

The first of the great resource crunches seemed about to strike.
