Peak Oil has been looming on the horizon for a long time. If you just got the word, we hope it was in time for you to be at least psychologically prepared, if not physically. This entire Beyond Peak website is dedicated to giving you as much information as possible so that you can prepare for, or at least deal with, the likely results of Peak Oil and economic collapse. But we are not alone. A number of groups have been working for some time to imagine possible Peak Oil and economic collapse scenarios, suggest ways to prepare for those scenarios, and even to create communities where people can live together in a sustainable, cooperative way—a way of life that doesn't need the threat of Peak Oil to be a good idea.

Stop and think, “why are we out of oil?”.
Because the communist/liberal/democrats will not allow us to drill and develop what we need.
It is that simple.
I can look out the window and the first mountain range is the Black Mountains, it has been staked for oil leases for 30 years that I know of, I have found the filings at the court house in Kingman.
At the time I wanted to stake gold claims in the area.
It was in one of the BLM “study” areas and is now a so called Wilderness site.
I don’t know enough cuss words to cover over 40 years of that fight.
At the time, we had a good/honest BLM Geologist, he told me the oil companies would be allowed to keep their leases in the Wilderness areas, that they could do the assessment work from the air, and I have watched them do so, hoses hang out of an airplane/helicopter and they fly a grid, with fancy machines recording what is in the earth........it also works to find caches of guns and explosives........
AND AFTER THE WILDERNESS IS IN EFFECT FOR 20 YEARS, YOU CAN PETITION CONGRESS AND GET THE AREA RELEASED FROM THE WILDERNESS AREA.!!!!!!!!!!
If you look at a State of Arizona “Known Mineral deposits map and at the Wilderness map”, you will find that the wilderness map, shows the good mineral deposits were locked up, so you and i cannot file on them.............
I have been over the areas around here and in the Yuma area and the wilderness areas are a plot and not at all what they sold the fool on the street.
If you want a stay in jail, attempt to enter the areas, unless you are one of the ‘party’.
It goes even further than that, they have given away, our National Parks, riverways and so much more.
The Papago Reservation / Tucson Organ Pipe National Monument is not under U.S. control, google is your friend, look for Heritage sites, world or U.S., even part of the southern farms is in the heritage site control and leased to the farmers............
Back to peak oil, Dr . Bill has said for years that the oil sands in Canada would be processed, when the value of oil was worth enough to show a profit for processing it and a couple years ago, it started flowing.
Our congress is now allowing Russia, cuba,china and all the other communists to drill in the ocean and will not allow Americans to drill for oil, they say they are outside our territory line, but they are close enough to slant drill.............
Dr. Bill should be on tonight, about 10 pm, kgo, 810 on the am dial for radio.
I know of capped wells in the Yuma area, I have talked of Grandpa Ira, the old man who lived with us in Wellton...
Ira was from Oklahoma and had worked on the oil drillers.
When he saw one go by the house and out in the desert, he asked to go and see what was going on, as we did not have oil wells in that area.
They drilled several wells, Ira kept an eye on them and knew when they hit oil sand, and they welded a cap on the pipe and left, as soon as they had the proof that oil was there.
We found the exact same well all over the desert.
