Given our tremendous reliance
on hydrocarbon energy at this stage of human evolution
people, when hearing about the obvious problem of depletion
naively brush it off under the assumption that the establishment
is actually preparing for a transition out of our dependency on hydrocarbons.
Or better yet, that the establishment can actually afford to create a transition.
In order to understand the difficulty of moving out of our current established energy paradigm
we must first realize that from a financial standpoint
there is very little motivation to move into a new system.
This is the very nature of an established institution in the monetary system.
The fact of the matter is an exorbitant amount of money
- I know this will sound strange to many of you -
an exorbitant amount of money is going to be made
on the scarcity of energy and in fact, the collapse of society itself.
Our economic system is predicated on making money on the way up
and making money on the way down.
Those in power have a propensity
to care more about the short term
short-sighted financial benefits of running out of energy
than they care about the pivotal life-supporting attributes that it provides.
