Richard is right – The Party’s Over.

When I first read “The Parties Over” in 2004 I went to Vegas the following week because I was trying to enjoy the last of the party.

Crisis will indeed bring about a new, sustainable society as Richard Heinberg suggests. Indeed, with the ending of fossil fuels such a transition is inevitable. However, such a society could only support perhaps 6 million people at most (in England) as was the case before the large scale use of fossils fuels.
This being so, then I would hardly call such a dramatic population reduction ‘bumps in the road’ as does Mr Heinberg.
