James Howard Kunstler was always the John Gray of Peak Oil prophets, or beyond that, a Cassandra in reverse — often telling direly pessimistic overstatements, but always being believed. I had read columns and essays by him semi-regularly 15 years ago, when many in the West were worried about Peak Oil.
Recently, I saw his “The Long Emergency” at my local library, and grabbed it off the shelf.
What follows is first my Goodreads review, then some extensive additional thoughts.
The Long Emergency: Surviving the Converging Catastrophes of the Twenty-First Century by James Howard Kunstler
My rating: 3 of 5 stars
Peak PROFITABLE US oil may still have been in 1970, as anybody who knows anything about the recent fracking boom in the Permian knows that 20 percent of it, at minimum, is unprofitable. Peak GLOBAL PROFITABLE oil may or may not have been in 2005. On that, I doubt it, as fracking has been mainly a US phenomenon until recently, and even where adopted elsewhere, has probably not been adopted at a loss.
But, given global oil production is up more than 15 percent since then, contra fanbois of his claiming otherwise, we’ve not hit Peak Oil. Period and end of story.
The two swing states of Saudi Arabia and Russia certainly haven’t peaked, even if fields in European Russia (and Azerbaijan), West Siberia, and Ghawar are all deteriorating. And, one must wonder how true the claims of Matthew Simmons et al 15 years ago actually were. (That doesn’t mean we should believe every word of Daniel Yergin, either.)
Other aspects appear dated. One is that lithium batteries have become feasible for hybrids (and nickel hydride has been used too, and still is). And, that means that battery storage technology for solar and wind becomes more feasible. That undercuts oh, about one-third of his pessimism about renewables.
That said, the non-peak of world oil means climate change becomes more problematic. And, in a “bootstrapping,” climate change opens more Arctic lands to oil exploration.
Even if the US has certainly already hit a peak in profitably produced oil, and in all likelihood, a peak in oil produced at any price, all of the factors above indicate that oil addiction isn’t going away.
That said, Kunstler was right about several things.
One is that renewable electric energy simply cannot ramp up enough to replace fossil fuel electricity AND decarbonize our transportation.
This all said, a fair amount of what Kunstler worries about in the Long Emergency would be true without peak oil, and without climate change doing exactly what it is doing.
And he was spot-on, sadly, in warning we were “overdue” for an influenza pandemic.
So, with hindsight, and knowing already a decade ago, or five years after the book, that Kunstler had a high level of alarmism even by my standards? Three stars.

Going beyond Kunstler’s book?
First, I’d read a number of essays by Kunstler, a decade or so ago. He seemed alarmist enough then. He seems more alarmist now. And, a Michael Mann or Katherine Hayhoe type would call ME at least mildly alarmist.
He’s both alarmist and hypocritical today if he’s flying in a plane and driving in a car to meet fanbois in person, per a sequel book of this year, as one reviewer notes.
Second, in discussing oil in the Middle East, he had a touch of Zionism in him. Not huge, but not nothing, either.
Third, even though there were indications 15 years ago it might happen, he ignored that climate change would open up oil exploration in the Arctic. Now, especially in the Russian Arctic, how MUCH oil is up there remains unknown, as does the issue of its depth, ease of extraction, etc.
But, if the Arctic of 10 years from now is as relatively calm overall as the North Sea of 20 years ago, and we know the available oil is definitely more than a nothingburger, it will be extracted.
Kunstler (and others) arguably could be faulted for ignoring what fracking would do, as fracking to expand and recomplete oil wells in conventional plays was already happening in 2005. For the first weekly newspaper where I was an editor, as part of a story, I was out on such a frack job back in 1998.
It’s sad that places like The Oil Drum went away. It’s sad in part because by simply disappearing, they gave their critics too much ammo. And, in retreating, they left nobody to defend parallel ideas like Peak Copper.
As for me? Of course, there will be a peak in obtainable oil. Beyond the increasing financial costs, the environmental costs will go up.

(And, I’ve already run into one 2005 Peak Oil cultist in his Goodreads review. When I pointed out he was wrong, he pointed to some story and chart which showed oil peaking now. Ignoring the issue of whether or not that’s a demand driven short-term peak rather than a permanent production peak, I pointed out that 2020 isn’t 2005.)Peak Oilers aren’t Seth Rich conspiracy theorists. But, they do need to do better thinking, including better engagement with the facts on the ground.
I wound up blocking said reviewer of Kunstler’s book on Goodreads. He claimed that Peak Oil happened in 2005. When I said no it didn’t, he then quoted an author of some other book, not from the book, but it seems from an email he sent to him, saying that “conventional oil” appeared to have peaked in 2005, but conventional PLUS non-conventional continued to rise.
The author, in reviewing Kunstler, never said “Peak Conventional Oil,” as the screengrab above notes. Kunstler himself discussed Canadian tar sands, Venezuelan dirty oil, etc. Plus, Matt Simmons and all the Peak Oilers talked about oil, period. I said he and the quoted author were guilty of intellectual dishonesty, in my third comment on his review, then blocked him. Greenpeace and others do the same. (Its linked Bloomberg piece is wrong; Ghawar has been producing 3.58 mbbl/day for some time; this isn’t something new and “less than expected.”) It also doesn’t matter if US banks won’t finance more Arctic drilling as long as Russia has cashflow (or gets it from China).
It’s barely possible that we hit a peak in profitable global oil in 2005, but highly unlikely. International oil experts are agreed on Saudi and Russian oil production overhead, and that it’s much lower than US overhead. Even if a water cut in Ghawar is growing, Saudi costs surely still aren’t higher than Russian ones, which remain below fracked US ones. As for that field? It has peaked, and the water cut has increased somewhat, but the Saudis are also injecting CO2. It’s not quite dead yet.
Big picture? This is yet another issue with a lot of simplistic twosiderism.

Note to Bloomsberg’s Peak Oil liars and scammers: Peak Oil Demand is not the same as Peak Oil, so the header of the piece is a liar. Second, a decade or more from now for Peak Oil Demand is NOT “suddenly upon us.”

I like James Howard Kunstler in many respects, but he was wrong on several key aspects, because he is not an engineer, but an observer of culture and politics.
Peak Oil in 2020 is an irrelevant event. Oil and gas will go and will be replaced by renewable energy. Peak oil is a very Anglo way of viewing things, by people stuck in their fossil fuel culture, that brought them great geopolitical success in the past, but now can’t find the psychological energy to innovate their way out of the predicament. No worries, leave it to Europe.
https://deepresource.wordpress.com/2020/12/04/mckinsey-net-zero-europe/
We are not going back to a “world made by hand”, technological civilization will continue to exist. It will become “lighter” in many respects. The “materialism” of the 20th century (oil, gas, coal, concrete, glass, steel) will be replaced by electronics, images through a wire, rather than 90 kg bodies moving in 2000 kg cars.
Private car ownership will vanish, not because some green-leftist government will forbid it, but because the car will have outlived itself. Autonomous car transport can be on demand, from the cloud, rather than from the roadside.
Burning fossil fuel will be replaced by quiet heat pumps, that will achieve the same heating result with 4-5 time more energy efficient.
Intermittency of renewable energy supply will be evened out by storage of seasonal heat, hydrogen, pumped hydro, flow batteries and many more.

Cloggie, that statement could easily go down in history under the heading ‘Famous Last Words’ or ‘Great Blunders’.
I never cease to be amazed by your ability to ignore information that runs contrary to your zeitgeist and blindly accept information that confirms what you want to hear. When it comes to energy, all you can hear is echos.
You are proposing that Europe can replace its present fossil and nuclear based energy infrastructure, with an alternative that runs on low power density ambient energy, requiring an investment of energy and materials about 2 orders of magnitude greater than was required to build the original infrastructure. You will be attempting to do this in a world of declining primary energy, in which both ERoEI and availability of energy is shrinking and in a world that is mired in a second great depression, probably even worst than the last.
The only reasons for the apparent affordability of ‘renewable’ energy sources at present, is the availability of free money, thanks to ZIRP and QE and the relatively low cost of commodities. Commodity prices are temporarily low thanks to declining affordability of real goods amongst Western consumers.
How long do you think ZIRP and QE can be maintained? And how long will commodities remain cheap? Eventually, investors are going to expect to see returns on their investments. Something that requires huge quantities of invested energy and materials is not going to be cheap in the future. Your renewable energy dreams are a dangerous diversion into a dead end, that will waste the neccesary resources for a real adaption from fossil to nuclear energy sources.
I have presented enough evidence here over the past several years, that these facts should be obvious to anyone with an objective mind.

“Cloggie, that statement could easily go down in history under the heading ‘Famous Last Words’ or ‘Great Blunders’.”
I have McKinsey-2020 and Fraunhofer Institute-2017.
Who do you have, besides David MacKay-2009?
All the renewable energy breakthroughs were after 2009 peak oil & David MacKay and his “not enough energy density” fake news.
In 2009, we had wind turbines of 500 kW and solar panels of 500 euro. Today we have 300 Watt panels for 100 euro and 15 MW offshore wind turbines that can be installed in 24 hours with ships like these:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JV9PykR5bHo
This ship alone can and will install all the electricity the Netherlands needs before 2030 and replace all fossil and nuclear capacity.

“Firm That Owns Dominion Voting Systems Received $400 Million From Swiss Bank Account Funded by Communist Chinese Gov & Companies Before Election”
https://summit.news/2020/12/01/firm-that-owns-dominion-voting-systems-received-400-million-from-swiss-bank-with-connection-to-chinese-government-before-election/
“An investigation into SEC filings has revealed that the firm which owns Dominion Voting Systems received $400 million dollars from a Swiss bank with close links to the Chinese government less than a month before the election. The investigation centers on Staple Street Capital, which acquired Dominion Voting Systems in 2018…“On Oct 8, 2020, Staple Street Capital filed SEC Form D offerings and sales amount of $400,000,000 with the Sales Compensation Recipient identified as UBS Securities,” states the investigation, which also notes that another payment of $200,000,000 was received in December 2014. “UBS Securities is a swiss investment bank which owns 24.99% of UBS Securities Co LTD, a Chinese Investment Bank. The remaining 75% of UBS Securities CO LTD is owned by the Chinese government,” states the report. The overall owners of UBS Securities Co LTD are; – Beijing Guoxiang (33%) – UBS (24.99%) – Guangdong Comm. Group [zh] (14.01%) – China Guodian (14%) – COFCO Group (14%) Aside from UBS, the other four owners of UBS Securities are all Communist Chinese front groups…The revelation that Dominion Voting Systems has financial ties to the Chinese government via UBS Securities will bolster claims by Trump supporters that foreign actors working on behalf of Communist China may have sought to meddle in the presidential election to help Joe Biden. Other connections between Dominion Voting Systems and the Chinese government have also emerged in recent weeks, including the company’s Core Infrastructure Manager of Information Technology, Andy Huang, who previously worked for China Telecom, which is “wholly run by the Chinese government,” reported the National Pulse.”

“So I should not have been surprised when it turned out that Xi was no reformer. Over the course of his tenure, the regime has degenerated further into a political oligarchy bent on holding on to power through brutality and ruthlessness. It has grown even more repressive and dictatorial. A personality cult now surrounds Xi, who has tightened the party’s grip on ideology and eliminated what little space there was for political speech and civil society. People who haven’t lived in mainland China for the past eight years can hardly understand how brutal the regime has become, how many quiet tragedies it has authored.

This 5 years period should suffice for Scotland and Ulster to declare independence, c.q. reunify with Ireland and create huge new geopolitical facts.

The last 160 km of the 1230 km pipeline need to be completed, not by the Dutch, who did the first 1070 km in record time with the Pioneering Spirit, the largest ship in the world, but with a shabby Russian vessel.
I recently made a picture of the Pioneering Spirit [*], anchored doing nothing in the Rotterdam harbor:
https://deepresource.wordpress.com/2020/09/24/maasvlakte-2-indian-summer/
Nevertheless, the timing could not be better. It remains to be seen if Biden, IF he becomes the next president, wants to start his presidency with a trade war against his only allies.
[*] – The original name of the ship was “Pieter Schelte”, a fine Dutch Nazi and founder of the Heerema Group, but under pressure that name was reviewed and given a PC globalist name.
