“GDP actually mesures the rate at which the economy is extracts useful natural resources running them through the econmic system and deposing of them as toxic waste in our air water and soil.” - David CKorten Posted 10/26/09 by Jim
28:50 is truly a disgusting scene. People not even bothering to eat the food that has taken thousands of calories in energy to produce and transport. Instead, they take a bite then throw the rest in the trash. What a greedy, worthless, visionless species. No pity at all. The earth will get rid of most of us and that is exactly the fate we deserve. In fact, the sooner the better IMO. Posted 10/09/09 by par
Hard to believe that some folks don’t get or believe this film. Evidence of the massive cognitive dissonance that we face. Posted 09/29/09 by j colwill
97% of manufactured goods are made out of oil thats apart from running cars on the stuff and its unlikely that a major oil company would wish to push peak oil as that would be like telling everyone their business is doomed .

Which oil company fundered this BullSh**? Shell? We’ve made advances where we can run cars and plans without oil. Do waste your time with this doc, what “Who Killed the Electric Car” instead. That shows your how corrupt the oil industry is. Posted 09/26/09 by GTR5 1967
Rob cites Wiki as a source.’Nuff said. Even the term “fossil fuels” is misleading. Why should we believe people in whose interest it is to maintain the illusion of scarcity and suppress truly clean and cheap energy? Posted 09/25/09 by WEREFEAT
Not to throw oil on the fire, but some speak of oil shale and tar sands. If you do pull the useable oil from these resources, you’d better have some use for the mountain of shale and sand you produce. Posted 09/25/09 by Rob
> This film is obvious globalist propaganda. Peak oil, like
Absolute nonsense. Even a simple Wiki search shows that Prudhoe Bay is actually an example of the mindboggling oil production problems associated with Peak Oil production : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prudhoe_Bay_Oil_Field “Prudhoe Bay oil field is a large oil field on Alaska’s North Slope. It is the largest oil field in both the United States and in North America, covering 213,543 acres (864.18 km2) and originally containing approximately 25 billion barrels (4.0×109 m3) of oil.”
The USA consumes 20 million barrels oil per day.
However, Prudhoe Bay reached Peak Oil production already in 1998 and is in serious decline : “Cumulative North Slope oil peaked in 1998 at 2 million barrels per day (320,000 m³/d) (Greater Prudhoe Bay: 1.5 million barrels per day (240,000 m³/d), but had fallen to 943,000 barrels per day (149,900 m³/d) in 2005,[4] while Greater Prudhoe averaged 411,000 bbl/d (65,300 m³/d) in December, 2006 and Prudhoe itself averaged 285,000 bbl/d (45,300 m³/d).[5] Total production from 1977 through 2005 was 13 billion barrels (2.1×109 m3). As of August 2006, BP estimated that 2 billion recoverable barrels remain and can be recovered with current technology.” If the remaining 2 billion barrels could be extracted instantaniously, it would be consumed by the USA in 3 months (at current consumption rate). How about them apples ? Posted 09/24/09 by Fergie
The CEO of ExxonMobil was on TV a while back and he made the statement that we would not hit peak oil in his lifetime nor in his childrens or his grandchildrens lifetimes. It’s time to start tapping into our oil resources in Alaska, the Bakken field in North Dakota and our huge supply of coal. We have the resources to be energy efficient, all we have to do is tap into them. Posted 09/24/09 by esotericx10
This film is obvious globalist propaganda. Peak oil, like global warming is a myth. There is enough oil at Prudeau Bay Alaska to last America another 200 years even at projected increases in consumption. Technologies exist NOW that could end our oil dependency. These technologies have been suppressed to serve the interests of greedy psychopaths, that would rather blame us than admit to their criminal mismanagement of resources under their control. Most of our industry has been outsourced to third world countries where these same psychopaths take advantage of slave labor and lax environmental laws, while at the same time they are destroying the middle class of this country. Not to mention they have a policy to reduce the global population by 80 to 90%. The WHO has recently admitted that they have been deliberately releasing pandemic into the general populace. We know from reliable, credible sources that these recombinant flu strains are created in the lab, and not a by-product of nature. They are weaponizing these viruses and the vaccines that are intended to control them. This is the perfect capitalistic weapon because it will achieve their goal of population reduction while leaving the infrastructure intact, and permit big pharma to make obscene profits in the process. While the prevailing wisdom among the kool-aid drinkers is that “our government would NEVER do anything like that” and “That could NEVER happen in America”, and while they’re arguing over whether it’s the democrats or republicans fault, the psychopathic global elite have been implementing diabolical plans to compel us all to pay for our own enslavement and destruction. The “walking around in a coma crowd” are just as complicit as the psychopaths because of their willful ignorance, their apathy, their complacency, and their arrogance.My associates and I will continue our efforts to wake up as many people as we can in the hopes of stopping and turning this around before it’s too late Posted 09/24/09 by esotericx10

Phil Alipiano said: “We must demand leaders that are NOT criminally insane...our leaders are criminally insane they only know control by destruction...wars, HAARP and Weather Modification, GM Food, GMO’s released into our soil, Chemtrails, dumbed down education system, main stream media controlled by the greedy, debt slavery, starvation, new viruses/diseases created and spread amongst us, toxic vaccines, dumbed down medical profression that have turned into ticket writers of designer drugs that cause more isde effects that what is being treated, teaching of junk science for profit, profit at ALL costs with no remosrese, dwindling wildlife, more disease and illness than every before at their hands, everything is sick and dying and they don’t give a damm in fact they want to depopulate the planet but they leave behind a toxic wasteland in their efforts of killing off the masses...soon nothing will grow in their toxic mess and then they will find out you cannot eat money...until the Illuminati and these greedy cabal are out of power nothing will change only get more desperate”. This pretty much sums it up. Here’s an article that backs it up: http://www.strike-the-root.com/91/groves/groves1.html Posted 09/24/09 by Doug Stewart
Peak Oil is another environmentalist lie, like Owl Gore’s global warming (which has now evolved into climate change, and is slowly turning into global cooling, though the liberals still want the taxes). The reason oil production has declined in the USA has NOTHING to do with a shortage of oil. It has everything to do with a shortage of mindset which has resulted in a lack of drilling! The people need to control environmentalism! Posted 09/24/09 by Janster
Note how developed countries now struggle to keep their population up. If we all were as developed, it would never be a problem again, infact we have quite the opposite in Norway and Japan. we WANT births to rise now. Oil on the other hand will be an issue very shortly for us all. Posted 09/23/09 by Reynald

Posted 09/23/09 by Hany Hanna
This film is TOTAL BS. The earth’s core is constantly making oil. Oil fields that are tapped out and capped fill back up after 20-25 years. The oil is not all “fossil” in origin. The price is manipulated by the illuminati bankers to control economies and populations. Posted 09/23/09 by blokcom
I agree with this film. However, the main message of this film is population control. Somehow they need to curb the world population to save earth. The question is how? I struggle with this reasoning daily as I believe that yes, the population problem is the fundamental issue that stands before us today, even more so than the nuclear threat. I just don’t want to be one of those (nor my family and friends) in the herd that is culled. This movie, I think is safe to assume, is part of a larger plan than exists called Agenda 21. It is blueprint for the 21st Century, a plan of action that is already working its way in American government and life. This of course pertains to all other countries as well.
To sum up it, a world envisioned by the global elite and the intellectuals from the universities who give reports of the environment, the resources and the population (usually the conclusion in their books, finger pointing to population as the main culprit),

This is brainswashing. There are alternatives. Peak oil is like global warming, its false science. Climate change religion. The mantra is there is too much people on earth, we need to tax production, reduce the standard of living, etc. Swine flu, holocaust, 9/11, terrorists, blah blah blah!!! This is the only thing coming out of the tube. Posted 09/23/09 by Mark
Not only will melting ice sheets cover existing land above water, it will also shift the weight of the planet in a way that will create new sources of earthquakes, volcano’s, tidal waves and more. The melting ice caps are a major threat to our society. Control population and you solve 90% of the problem. Posted 09/23/09 by PARASITISM
puke oil is a lie and this article is another machination OF THE 20 TRILLION A YEAR OIL PARASITE THAT NEEDS TO BE THROWN OFF…
Posted 09/23/09 by castlebright
The age of oil is over. The world has decided to find a better source. The solution will come. I suggest nature has given us some obvious hints. Two powerful resources that are safe and endless. Gravity and water. We have to find a way to use these beautiful resources. Who will make the machine to convert water and gravity to energy? castlebright Posted 09/23/09 by Gigas
As long as there is water on the earth, there will be oil in the earth. There’s no shortage and they know water is oil filtered down from above bonded with carbons. Thats why they are power grabbing water rights and will control oil from that point. Oil is water molecularly converted by heat and high pressures within the earth. Posted 09/23/09 by powerease
Abiotic oil? “standing columns of wave energy”? Global Warming is bullshit? How indicative of the mass of the Americans who understand nothing about oil or energy other then the gasoline they crave when and where they want it and at a price that does not max out their credit cards. These are the numbers that matter, nothing else: In 1950 the world population was 2.5 billion, today it is 6.8 billion which means population has almost tripled in just 60 years. What do American’s think will happen to population growth in the next 60 years? American has 350 million people out of the 6.8 billion or just 5% of the world’s population but we use more then 27% of the world’s oil and gas. Do American’s think they can sit on their behinds and believe this lack of balance of energy use between countries is going to keep going like business as usual? Do American’s have any idea the billions in dollars China is investing in its own solar industry at the same time it scours the world and cuts oil and natural gas deals at will? All while people in this country play some zero sum game of moronic politics which is destroying us? Tell me when gasoline is racing past $10.00 a gallon that Peak Oil is nothing but smoke and mirrors. Posted 09/23/09 by fireye
Obviously they have not heard of abiotic oil. This film is nothing but a propaganda piece. I only watched about 15 min of it. “peak oil” is a bald faced lie and they know it. Posted 09/23/09 by freethinker
there is enough oil for years to come…
Posted 09/23/09 by Robert
This “Blindspot” sounds like a bunch of anti-oil, pro global warming lie bull roar. Oil is good. Why can’t people get used to that idea. The more the better. Whenever I see oil, I burn it… that’s what its for. I also use it to lubricate things, but I really dig burning it. I and others like me will always thumb our nose at you idiots. I will put as much carbon into the atmosphere as I can. Carbon is good. Oil is abiotic. There’s LOTS of it and it renews. Quite worrying about it. Fools. Man made Global Warming is complete bullshit. Posted 09/23/09 by cliff
Maybe we can run cars on TIDE, it sure helped run this film....Loose Change, Blind Spot; guess it is a trend. I had to shut this film down after I saw the expert texpert with the curl right in the middle of his forehead. Why? Well many reasons and I may come back and finish it. I did enjoy the Shell film oddly enough but the premise that we are running out of oil is just so stupid that all I can hope is that at the end of this film you will mention the fact that there is more oil in Alaska than all the fields in the Middle East. I am sure Shell loves this film at least. Peak oil....oy vey. Before isrHELL started that war in 1973 all the Arabs wanted to do was sell us cheap oil. NIce scam. Posted 09/23/09 by GaryS
Learn the real truth about oil. There is no shortage, it is not a fossil fuel and we will never, ever run out of it! It is a self renewing natural resource. not made from dead dinosaurs and plants. Posted 09/23/09 by Phil Alipiano
Peter Waine (above comment) is absolutely correct. OIL is abiotic. I have drilled on 5 continents--including “Russia.”

The biggest shame of all is the shelving of alternative energy this has been done over and over all in the name of GREED for a bunch of criminals in Armani suits that have dictated our way of life for their wealth...they would never give up that gas cow and have stiffled a better way for all the past century...in order to save the planet and humanity (what is left of humanity) we must demand better...common sense tells you what needs to be done...it would make your heads spin to know what has been shelved in the name of GREED… We must demand leaders that are NOT criminally insane...our leaders are criminally insane they only know control by destruction...wars, HAARP and Weather Modification, GM Food, GMO’s released into our soil, Chemtrails, dumbed down education system, main stream media controlled by the greedy, debt slavery, starvation, new viruses/diseases created and spread amongst us, toxic vaccines, dumbed down medical profression that have turned into ticket writers of designer drugs that cause more isde effects that what is being treated, teaching of junk science for profit, profit at ALL costs with no remosrese, dwindling wildlife, more disease and illness than every before at their hands, everything is sick and dying and they don’t give a damm in fact they want to depopulate the planet but they leave behind a toxic wasteland in their efforts of killing off the masses...soon nothing will grow in their toxic mess and then they will find out you cannot eat money...until the Illuminati and these greedy cabal are out of power nothing will change only get more desperate. time we live in self honesty, self responsibility and life for ALL...it is the only way...wake up and get these criminals out of power and demand better for ALL.OR face the next great extinction it has happened before...obviously we learned nothing from these events.

The fellow at the beginning said words to the effect: “imagine pushing your car for 18 miles when you can power it to go that far for around $2.50 of gasoline. Two days of manual labor vs. $2.50 of fossil fuel” This is the type of logic that says we have “Global Warming”. I’m certain that if I were driving along and my car ran out of gas that I would walk. If I couldn’t afford the gasoline or the car, I would buy a bycycle and walk also. This type of (sic.) ‘logic’ the the fellow expouses, only serves to put us in a position to have to walk or ride a bycycle. The japenese have developed and marketed a car that runs on hydrogen taken from water from a device inside of the car. Of course we could do that here as well. A movie about the reason why we don’t would be alot more interesting. Posted 09/23/09 by PETER
get into eugenics kill the useless eaters more regulations more controll more taxes, this is propaganda just go nuclear and stop pooing yourselvs Posted 09/23/09 by Rob
Rejoice!!! The end of oil is near!!! Rockefeller et al FORCE petroleum down our throats… then the paid for main stream media has the nerve to suggest that WE are the cause of global warming due to our burning of ‘fossil fuels’ (non-fossil = non-organic). THEY vilified alternatives like King hemp as HEMP stood in their way of COMPLETE ENERGY CONTROL! Some free country. Slaves on the plantation. Be thankful for what we give you! Lick the hand that feeds you! Bring back HEMP and allow Tesla technology to prevail… energy crisis goes bye bye overnight! There IS NO energy crisis, people!!! The only energy crisis is the one between our ears! Stop volunteering / clamoring for your own destruction!! Posted 09/23/09 by Peter Waine from the UK
Oil is abiotic and not a fossil fuel, deep drilling through basalt rock well below the fossil strata is finding oil, Russia went from being an importer of oil to exporter of oil on this well known fact that oil is ABIOTIC and just requires deep drilling to tap. Posted 09/23/09 by Errol Flynn
Dear Adeel, I and many others in the West (including Americans) will share your anger at the disproportionate consumption of the Earth’s resources by people living in the USA. I also need to tell you I have visited your part of the world and while I enjoyed my travel experiences there, often found myself overwhelmed by the multitudes of people thronging the landmass of India, Pakistan, and Bangladesh. India’s population in 1947 (at independence) was just 350-million. Yet by the early 1960s, that number had already doubled to around 700-million people. Despite being the first country to impose large-scale birth-control policies, India’s population reached the 1-Billion mark in the year 2000 (officially that is). As India can no longer count its population, we no longer have an accurate measure, but it must be more than 1.2-Billion already. India, as a consequence, is now an open sewer. Most of its ground water is contaminated. Pakistan’s population also mushroomed over the same period. Furthermore, more Arabs have been born since 1970 than ever lived prior to that year! And if all that wasn’t enough, Africa’s population continues to expand at exponential rates despite decades of poverty, famines, and wars. Pakistan had serious social problems long before criminal NeoCons in America sent troops into neighboring Afghanistan to wreak havoc and sow yet more enmity. Don’t you think its time you all tried to grow up and take charge of your own problems? Such as over-population? You can’t keep blaming other nations for your own problems and failures. That game is over. Many Americans know what is wrong with their country, but do Indians and Pakistanis know what is wrong with theirs? Delhi somehow found the money and resources to launch (recently) a space probe to the Moon, yet India is home to more social problems (and illiteracy) than Africa! Do you people really think you can keep moving to Europe and the USA to take professional jobs from indigenous people there, just so you might conveniently avoid facing up to why your own countries are basket cases? What is more polluting? The emissions of 100,000 SUVs speeding up and down Route 66 in the USA, or the tens of thousands of tonnes of heavy metals being poured into the River Ganges each and every year? Pakistan’s once free flowing river systems were destroyed by your over-population decades ago; long before the SUV. If the “Will of Allah” is your only birth-control then you are in deep trouble.

Resource limits are artificial. For crying out loud look at all the waste on ‘land scape’. Posted 09/23/09 by Steve
This documentary rests on the premise of ‘Peak Oil’. Peak Oil is a nonsense. Oil is abiotic. It does not come from plants and dinosaurs. Russians are drilling the stuff 10 miles down. This doco is a NWO propaganda piece. Humans are bad, modern lifestyle is bad, carbon is bad, oil is bad, blah, blah, blah...... These people would have us a few of us living in caves whilst the elites inhabit palaces. This is the message of the Georgia Guide Stones. This doco is a NWO hit piece. Posted 09/23/09 by USA BABY!
Adeel dont you have a herd of camels to attend to, I know it must suck being a muzzie, but dont be so jealous of Americans,after all we make the world go around.Say it adeel you want to be like americans, but you muzzies arent smart enough.enjoy living you life like a caveman, Moron!

This brilliant movie educates, sobers, inspires and humbles anyone who cares about the future. As a civilization, we must move quickly to educate our citizens and leaders to move toward alternative energy at breakneck speed. Additionally, we, as a species need to move toward population stabilization in the USA and worldwide. If we don’t, Mother Nature will stabilize us and her methods prove brutal. Frosty Wooldridge Posted 09/14/09 by Hans Verbeek
Limits to growth were predicted in 1972.

Phil is completely accurate in his statements. Things are going to be BAD, and within the lifetimes of the people who are reading this. Posted 05/14/09 by Phillip
If this blind spot is true, and i belive it is, our world as we know it is not going to change slowly over the next 50 or 100 years. We have all seen what happened when oil went over 100 dollars a barrel. Imagine life after the peak of oil. Maybe 200 million Americans out of work unable to afford food and fuel and eventually housing. This isn’t 50 or 100 years away this is 5, 10 maybe 20 years away. Possibly in less than a year or 2 if instability causes a bottle neck in the oil supply. Now is the time to act and try to protect ourselves from this threat. Stop listening to the people who say its gonna be OK and act to protect yourself and the people we love. The spread of knowledge is paramount in this effort. Posted 05/12/09 by Jay Smith
Is this film available for viewing? Someone recommended that I view the environmental documentary film, “Blind Spot”, on this snagfilms website, but it doesn’t appear to play in any format. |
