A couple of weeks ago I posted a short series on peak oil, on what it is, when it can be expected, and what we do about it. (That series is here) What I didn’t go into in any great detail was the link between peak oil and national security. That’s because I wrote about that for Celsias, and you can find it here.
It’s a pretty serious issue: “Soaring oil prices and market volatility could spark an outright oil war between major powers” says one recent national secuity briefing, “possibly ignited not by China or Russia, but by the United States.”
