Heinberg interviewed on Santa Fe Public Radio

Post Carbon Senior Fellow Richard Heinberg was interviewed on the KSFR show The Journey Home. Richard spoke about his latest book Blackout: Coal, Climate, and the Last Energy Crisis.

From the interview:

“What we really want to know about coal is not when is it going to run out, which is all that the US Department of Energy will tell us, but when is production going to peak? And its just within the last few years that studies have been done, not by US government, but by independent agencies including the Energy Watch Group in Germany, that suggest that global coal and US coal production will peak startingly soon. For the world as a whole something like 2025.”
