January Program 2012 Program Chair: Mary Ellen Nordkye-Grace Friday January 27 - Speaker: Fred Duennebier Emeritus Professor of Geology and Geophysics at the University of Hawaii, Manoa
Title: "The End of Cheap Everything"
Oil and other resources are becoming more difficult to find and produce as demand and world population grow. We are now at a point where production of all major resources, from oil to soil to fish, are peaking, and declines will ensue. As we live on a finite planet, continued growth will become impossible and major contraction of every aspect of society is likely within one human lifetime. These claims will be justified during the talk and likely impacts will be discussed.
