The U.S. June issue of National Geographic has a write up on Peak Oil that is very interesting. Peak Oil is definitely making a shining in magazines such as national geographic, popular mechanics, etc...
The article talks about Sadad I. Al Husseini predicting production declining as soon as 2015. It also mentions Paul Roberts book "The End of Oil" and his new book coming out named "The End of Food".
It also includes are great chart showing "Large Oil-Field Discoveries". I think it is a great article and worth buying this issue if you don't already subscribe to National Geographic. Even though many members here already know this information, this can be a tool to give to family members or friends and say "look even National Geographic is talking about it".
If this is a double post and has been talked about in another thread please merge.

It can be read online. It's excellent.

About time.
Last year I wrote to 15 of the largest newspapers in the US and a half dozen news magazines about this subject and not one publication was interested. I also wrote to Al Gore...no response. |

Here's the problem: The people don't read.

neat, the last ~2 issues didn't interest me much... but I bought NatGeo magazine now and then. I borrowed one past issue to a new friend, which has being receptive to Peak Everything and die-off hints.
