ECOSHOCK — OIL SHOCK – THE NO-GROWTH WORLD
High oil prices lead to no-growth global economy. If China grows, the West must shrink, meaning unemployment, disappointment, insolvent governments. Two speeches from ASPO 2011 in Washington: Jeff Rubin, former CIBC investment guru & Charles Maxwell of Weeden Co. Neither Peak Oil speaker mentions climate change. Why not? We interview Italian ASPO founder, author of “Limits to Growth Revisited” and climate watcher Ugo Bardi. ASPO USA recordings by Gerri Williams. End music “Change Change” by Thistle.
