Kenneth Deffeyes speaks with Julian Darley

Prof. Kenneth Deffeyes - Petroleum geologist and author of "Hubbert's Peak" - discussing oil peak, US natural gas problems, media responses to oil peak, and economists with Julian Darley at the Ohio University Baker Peace Conference 'Energy Consumption and the Environment' in Athens, Ohio, USA on 4^th April 2003

1. Why do you think we have already passed oil peak?
2. What are some of the special problems with natural gas, especially in North America?
3. Why do you think that there is so much resistance to the peak oil message?
4. Shell says we have 20-35 years more conventional oil. Hubbert himself worked for Shell, so what do you make of it when Shell, and other industry people, say we've got 25 years?
