Folks,

Here is my latest article for Energy and Capital, in which I mark Memorial Day, 2008 as the end of the peak oil “debate,” and the beginning of a new dialogue about the future of energy…

P.S. Speaking of which, my book actually reached #42 on the overall Amazon charts last week…a pretty remarkable thing, considering that only a couple of years ago peak oil was considered a fringe theory!

First, the good news: My book cracked the top 100 on Amazon today!

I also had a decent short radio interview with CNN today, which was broadcast live and at the top of every hour across the network. I’m still trying to round up an online copy of that…

Moving right along, here’s this week’s article for Energy and Capital.

If you’re a Bush supporter, and your knee-jerk reaction to this article is to dismiss it as mere Bush-bashing, then please look at it again. As far as I am aware, it’s simply the truth.

Folks,

This week I had the privilege of appearing twice on Fox Business to discuss high oil prices and record profits for Big Oil. I don’t have the video online yet, but when I do, I’ll post it here.

I discussed the first appearance in my Energy and Capital article this week, which you can read below.

The appearances are part of the promotional effort for my new book, Profit from the Peak, which I hope you’ll all pick up and read!

As always, I welcome your feedback.

Cheers,

Profit from the Peak: The End of Oil and the Greatest Investment Event of the Century
by Chris Nelder
This is my first book, released in April 2008. It discusses peak oil in depth, then moves on to examine the possible peaking scenarios for all sources of energy, and recommends investing angles on each one.

Colin Campbell, co-founder of the Association for the Study of Peak Oil (ASPO), called it “the best job I have seen in describing the Peak Oil issue in a sound and very understandable way.”

It’s packed with data and charts, and should be a useful resource for peak oil newbies and experts alike.

I encourage you to pick up a copy and let me know what you think!
