depletion bites"

"Depletionists" to use the label from BTRE Working Paper 61 Is the World
Running out of oil? A Review of the Debate have become more vociferous in
recent months, declaring that the "Hubbert Peak" in world oil production is
with us, or will occur shortly. Some of the Depletionists use "Plan B" to
describe what may need to be done to cope with increasing oil prices and
decreasing oil availabilities. Dr Bennett, who is the founder of the
Sustainable Transport Coalition, will review some of the papers on potential
mitigation measures, and will discuss the interventions that the STC is
calling for from governments in its policy paper "Oil: Living with Less"
(see http://www.stcwa.org.au/papers/STCpolicy04Oilprf.pdf ). Recent research
on the energy efficiency of biofuels will also be presented.
