Prime Minister Helen Clark "we are past peak oil production"

Video Title :	Prime Minister Helen Clark "we are past peak oil production"
Description :	On the 18-4-2006 Helen Clark the Prime Minister of New Zealand said in answer to a question regarding fuel prices being so high "I'm sure (the rise in oil prices) is causing concern in every country. Because everyone is on the receiving end of the same phenomenon. Which is oil prices very high, because WE'RE PROBABLY NOT TOO FAR SHORT OF PEAK PRODUCTION, IF NOT ALREADY THERE, and that concentrates the mind..... snip.... yet her fool minister of energy David Parker came out a week later saying the world wouldn't peak until 2030 - 37, we truly have idiots for leaders in New Zealand, and that goes for National as well, another bunch of con artistes who think the Kiwi Saver is a good idea, while in the light of Helen's peak oil statement we (those who can work it out) know there will not be an economy worth 2 cents soon enough I told ya so. www.oilcrash.com

At least she admits it... here in Germany they mostly ignore the topic.

New oil will be very expensive. There is massive investment in Canadian oil sands that cost over $60/barrel to produce. The biggest oil field in the word, Ghawar, is almost spent.

the New Zealand media seem to be about the only national media that regularly report peak oil. They don't have much if any of their own, and they are a long way from anywhere. Good reasons to be more aware!

Unfortunately they let Helen get away with telling them that all they hold dear eg food,security,and the lives of their loved ones are coming to an end, because that is what peak production of oil is = the end of the world as we know it. and only 1 website and 1 local paper reported Helen's statement, to the best of my knowledge Robert

Good comment. We are a long way from anywhere, probably why we are more aware of the problem. Then again, nearly everyone I know there, myself included, grows their own food... so when the shit (maybe) hits the fan, NZ would probably be quite a good, safe place to be.
