Kunstler: Life Without Cheap Oil

Running on Empty

It’s not a question of if, but when. Futurist and author James Howard Kunstler talks about life in a world without cheap oil

We were alarmed at $50 dollars a barrel. Then again at $100. Now, as the cost of a barrel of oil is inching towards $150, the question has become, how much higher can it go?

We present a series of stories looking at how we got here, why the price has risen so quickly, and explore some theories about where this is all taking us.
