Arthur Berman: "Peak Oil - The Hedonic Adjustment"
On this episode, petroleum geologist Arthur Berman returns to unpack the development and drawbacks of 'peak oil'.

The reality is that - circa 2023 - fully 40% of what is called oil is comprised of things that are 'not oil'. What does this imply for global peak oil? Is peak oil, an observation which has been around for decades and repeatedly proven 'wrong', even relevant today? Is a specific 'peak' date even helpful or should we be focusing on the logical implications of a declining primary resource for global economies? And then, what should we do
