We’re All Good Now: A Mysterious Reversal

Art Berman today responded to the many critics that piled on him after his last essay in which he reversed his prior warnings about oil depletion by doubling down.

Peak Oil: Requiem for a Failed Paradigm

Technology, capital, and price—not just geology—now dictate oil supply. The 2005-2014 price boom unlocked more oil than anyone expected. Today, financial markets and geopolitics—not depletion—drive the oil game.

Shale changed everything, unleashing a massive new supply. Peak Oil still pretends it doesn’t exist—won’t even put it on a chart. That’s why it’s a dying paradigm. It had its moment and reshaped my world view in important ways. May it rest in peace.

If you listen to the Art Berman that existed a year ago, and compare him to today’s Art Berman, and observe he did not correct or retract any of his prior analysis, you have to conclude that some powerful force is in play, like perhaps mRNA transfection brain damage, or grandchildren induced MORT.

  1. I love this essay by Jeffrey Tucker. A new political movement has coalesced to shine light on many evils including what our governments did to us during covid. No one has been held to account for many millions killed and injured. That needs to change.

    https://brownstone.org/articles/the-most-dramatic-narrative-shift-in-modern-history/

    A strange thing happened in 2020. 

    Most governments at all levels across the globe turned on their people. It was a shock because governments had never before attempted anything this audacious. It claimed to be exercising mastery over the whole of the microbial kingdom, the world over. It would prove this implausible mission as a valid one with the release of a magic potion made and distributed with its industrial partners who were fully indemnified against liability claims. 

    Suffice it to say that the potion did not work. Everyone got Covid anyway. Most everyone shook it off. Those who died were often denied common therapeutics to make way for a shot that clocked the highest rate of injury and death on public record. A worse fiasco would be hard to invent outside dystopian fiction. 

    The politicians – the people for whom the public votes and who form the one real connection that the people have with the regimes under which they live – went along but did not seem to be in the driver’s seat. Nor did the courts seem to have much role. They were closed along with small businesses, schools, and houses of worship. 

    The controlling forces in every nation traced to something else we did not normally think of as government. It was the administrators who occupied agencies that were deemed independent of public awareness or control. They worked closely with their industrial partners in tech, pharma, banking, and corporate life. 

    The Constitution did not matter. Neither did the long tradition of rights, liberty, and law. The workforce was divided between essential and nonessential in order to survive the great emergency. The essential people were the ruling class plus the workers who serve them. Everyone else was deemed unessential to social functioning. 

    It was supposed to be for our health – government merely looking after us – but this claim lost credibility quickly, as mental and physical health plummeted. Desperate loneliness replaced community. Loved ones were forcibly separated. The aged died alone with digital funerals. Weddings and worship were cancelled. Gyms were closed and then opened later only for the masked and the vaxxed. The arts died. Substance abuse skyrocketed because while everything else was closed the liquor stores and pot shops were open for business. 

    Making matters more confusing, no one in charge of this disaster would admit error or even explain their thinking. The burning questions were and are so voluminous as to be impossible to list in full. In the US, there was supposed to be a Covid commission but it never formed. Why? Because the critics far outweighed the apologists, and a public commission proved too risky. 

    Too much truth could get out, and then what would happen? Behind the public health rationale for the destruction, there was a hidden hand: national security interests rooted in the bioweapons industry that has long lived under a classified cover. This is likely what accounts for the strange taboo concerning this whole topic. Those who know cannot say while the rest of us who have been researching this for years are left with more questions than answers. 

    We live in the midst of that now, with minute-by-minute revelations of where the money went and who precisely was involved. Multiple trillions were squandered as the people’s standard of living took a dive, and now top among the burning questions is: who got the money? Careers are being wrecked as famous anti-corporate crusaders like Bernie Sanders turn out to be the US Senate’s largest single beneficiary of pharma largesse, exposed for the world. 

    The Sanders story is just one data point of millions. The news of the sheer number of rackets is spilling out like an avalanche minute-by-minute. The newspapers we thought were chronicling public life turned out to be on the take. The fact-checkers were always working for the blob. The censors were only protecting themselves. The inspectors we believed were keeping an eye out were always in on the game. The courts keeping tabs on government overreach were enabling it. The bureaucracies tagged to implement legislation were unchecked and unelected legislatures in themselves. 

    The shift is beautifully illustrated by USAID, a $50 billion agency that claimed to be doing humanitarian work but which was really a slush fund for regime change, deep-state operations, censorship, and NGO graft on a scale never before seen. Now we have the receipts. The entire agency, lording over the globe like an unchecked colossus for decades, seems destined for the trash heap. 

    Frequently overlooked in all the commentary on our times is how the second Trump administration is Republican in name only but mostly consists of refugees from the other party. Tick through the names (Trump, Vance, Musk, Kennedy, Gabbard, and so on) and you find people who only a few years ago were associated with the Democratic Party. 

    Which is to say that this aggressive rooting out of the deep state is being achieved by what is a de facto third party aimed at overthrowing the establishments of the legacy ones. And this is not just in the US: the same dynamic is taking shape throughout the industrialized world. 

    The entire system of government – properly conceived of not as a democratically elected conduit of the peoples’ interest but instead a complicated and unelected network of unfathomable industrial racketeering with a ruling class at the controls – seems to be unraveling before our eyes. 

    It’s like the old episodes of Scooby-Doo when the scary ghost or mysterious specter has the mask removed and it is the town mayor all along, who then proclaims that he would have gotten away with it but for these meddling kids. 

    The meddling kids now include vast swaths of the world’s population, burning with a passionate desire to clean up the public sector, expose the industrial scams, unearth all the secrets that have been kept for decades, put power back into the hands of the people as the liberal age promised long ago, while seeking justice for all the wrongdoing of these last hellish five years.

  2. New presentation by Dr. William E. Rees. He confirms he no longer has any hope.

    I only skimmed it because in the last presentation I saw Rees disclosed he was in favor of transfecting billions of people with mRNA and considered anyone opposed to mRNA transfections an idiot.

    2. Listened to this while I pruned more apple trees.

      It was good. No mention of shots. He hit all the points he usually does. Did mention that he just read the latest Hanson report on climate change and understands that we now face predicaments and not problems with solutions. He also seemed to disagree with Art and thinks Art is looking at Peak Oil from a financial perspective and not from a collapse of everything perspective.

      He did comment that Trump has taken down the posting of temps/CO2 from Mauna Loa. I get it that he thinks Trump is a idiot (I do too, but I sure couldn’t vote for Kamala). I understand that the usual Trump voter thinks that climate change is a hoax because they see the hypocrisy of the elites jetting all over telling everyone else how terrible CO2 is. I only respect those who at least try to limit their emissions (and sadly Al Gore became the poster child of hypocrisy with his lifestyle).

    3. I just watched that video. Rees is always good, and this was a pretty typical presentation of his. But the subject that I’m now obsessed with is never even mentioned by William. It’s starting to become (for me at least) ridiculous to see someone this aware of our predicament, yet so completely blind to fire.

      And just like most of his work, this presentation dives a little bit into how agriculture and fossil fuels were huge mistakes (or how they made huge problems down the road). But he always stops at agriculture (just like everyone else who has the disease of fire blindness). So bizarre how the only thing that enabled a species to make those huge mistakes… is completely ignored. There was even a funny line by Rees where he says something like “we humans are the only species to have ever done this” (can’t remember if he was talking about agr or ff’s, but how the hell can he not use that same simple logic to connect the dots back to fire?)

      Bill spends some time on the evolution of human brains… thought for sure he was gonna at least mention the almighty “F” word here… kind of a big deal when it comes to the evolution of human brains😊. But no mention whatsoever. His last slide where he talks about the importance of accepting reality and knowing ourselves… well, c’mon Bill, practice what you preach and start accepting the reality that you need to go further back with your story… in order to truly know ourselves.

      This kind of ties into that Paul Chefurka article that I posted a couple weeks ago where I was impressed with Paul’s emphasis on fire:

      Burning carbon and using the released energy of combustion is easy and obvious… we have been doing it for over a million years

      That article sent me on a mission to see what else Chefurka had to say about fire. He has way too much content for me to check everything. I was just doing a control + Fkey search for fire, carbon, and CO2. Probably went through 200 articles. And it took extra-long because I stopped to read a bunch of his articles along the way because Paul is such a damn good writer. He has tons of info about thermodynamics and the MPP… but nothing meaningful about fire anywhere. I just don’t know how he could say what he said in that article and not have more interest/curiosity about the subject. 

      Well, actually I think I do know how. The same reason Rees can’t even acknowledge it… Denial, of course. Accepting fire as the bad guy is a tough red pill to swallow. Just speaking from my own experience now… Your worldviews will most likely change drastically. Instead of seeing hunter/gatherers (and the big chunk of time where everything basically stayed the same) as the pinnacle of humanity… you start to see it more as a waiting game… waiting for the fruits of one million years’ worth of fire use to catch up with that species and give them the superpowers required to carry out a self-induced mass extinction.

      Any other planet that has witnessed full consciousness will look exactly like Earth… meaning only one species has a monopoly on the ecological destruction… with zero competition. I seriously doubt there is anywhere in the universe that has multiple species with full consciousness, simultaneously. The group that gets there first, will always crush any other fire experimenting species long before they were able to get close to full consciousness. 

      And then connecting it all with the MPP… and how all life, if capable, would be going down our same road, just following their programmed instructions… kind of like, if human life is just mimicking what the rest of life is doing (with the added bonus of full consciousness provided by fire) then maybe it’s not just humans that suck… It’s life that sucks.

      For those that choose to see life as a gift/miracle and something to be in awe of… I’m very jealous😊. But I also think that kind of logic is the same logic used by people who choose to believe that technology and human ingenuity will save us… or choose to believe some god and the afterlife will save us. Just another sneaky way we fool ourselves into believing everything is ok. Same old story ever since sapiens were thrust into the nightmare of full consciousness 100-200kya. Desperately assigning meaning to anything and everything, every step of the way… to distract from the bleakness of it all.

      So ya, I can understand how Chefurka could see how “easy and obvious” it was that fire is where it all went wrong yet couldn’t bring himself to explore where that road leads to. Ditto for Bill’s blindness. It’s just too scary, I guess.

      1. You’ve found your passion. That’s good. Most people don’t have one.

        Little awareness of the importance of fire might be denial, or it could simply be that fish don’t see the water they swim in.

        I attribute the same effect to denial and our strange tendency to believe in gods. For me these are super interesting unique behaviors of our species. Most other people are not interested, maybe because god and denial are everywhere, like water to fish.

    This shit is flat since 2008, when their economy actually died and became a zombie kleptocracy. America has been huffing natural gas to get high ever since, literally fracking the bottom of the barrel. But new fossil fuel reserves will just get more and more expensive until they economically run out before they’re environmentally unavailable. Fossil fuels are called nonrenewable resources for a reason and renewables both require and do not replace them. You know that moment when the party’s over but you’re too drunk to leave? Perhaps you don’t, bless your heart, but this is it.

    I again know this from bitter (and deeply suppressed) experience. During the Sri Lankan collapse my household—again, being rich Colombador elites—bought expensive battery storage. We already had solar panels so our house was technically self-sufficient and renewable. Even if monkeys trip the whole grid, I can just walk downstairs and flip a switch to keep my household running. But this is just destiny deferred by money, like the whole western economy.

    Technically the whole house is renewable, but this is just deferral, not an actual difference. The battery power runs out in a day and then the batteries themselves run out in maybe a decade. These things are heavy (and toxic) as hell and every ‘renewable’ component is made of nonrenewable, largely non-recyclable resources that have to be dug up and transported with fossil fuels, largely diesel. Who are we kidding? Not God, who blinks through this whole charade.

    Of course, Chinese electricity growth is still growing (bless them), but they’re still cursed by history. Communism failed almost everywhere but China and global communism was our last chance to plan our economies in any coherent way. Not planning is just planning to fail, as they say, and you can see the results today. Unplanned capitalist economies will just grow capital at all cost, which is great for capital, but roasts the planet by mindlessly doubling every generation, with no concept of moderate prosperity (小康社会). The capitalist economy is all gas and no brake. And so it breaks. The White Empire fucked the planet and China is in the planet so they’re fucked also. China’s economic miracle is again just a deferral of destiny.

  4. Fascinating to watch DOGE uncover huge funds that were diverted from many sources to support illegal immigrants, and the lies that were told to deny this.

    What force could be powerful enough to explain this?

    How about the bureaucrats deciding that a rapid increase in population was the only way to keep growth going to avoid an economic collapse?

    Which means Trump’s policies may trigger a depression and one wonders how he might respond to this?

    Buckle up.

      THE UNIPARTY UNMASKED – They Believe They Are “Democracy”

      The seven NGOs in the chart below, in my view, represent the Uniparty. Each of these organizations receives substantial financial support from USAID or the Department of State.

      Around 2019, the phrase “democracy in danger” began to dominate public discourse, amplified by the media. This was odd—after all, the U.S. is a democracy (or more precisely, a constitutional republic). But as I traced the influence of these NGOs, a pattern emerged: they are controlled by establishment politicians, they play a major role in shaping political narratives worldwide, and their core mission is always framed as “protecting democracy.”

      Originally, these NGOs were created to support U.S. democratic efforts abroad—many of them emerging during the Cold War to combat the spread of communism. But with the fall of the Soviet Union, their original purpose faded. Instead of dissolving, they redefined their mission. Now, they have positioned themselves as the guardians of democracy itself.

      This shift explains why Trump’s re-election was framed as a “threat to democracy.” To these NGOs, “democracy” means themselves. Their survival depends on maintaining that role, and any challenge to their authority is perceived as a direct attack on democracy itself.

  5. Even James Hansen doesn’t understand the meaning of his own science. Human brains evolved in an environment that changed imperceptibly slowly. They are now completely unsuited to the complexities that surround us on all sides. They are compulsively over-simplifying everything.

    Here’s something that’s incredibly disturbing, truly mind-boggling. It’s 2025 and still not a single climate scientist understands climate change well enough to tell the public the obvious truth.

    Emissions cuts accelerate global warming and intensify extreme weather due to loss of air pollution aerosols. Toxic air pollution, which suppresses global warming by making clouds more reflective, has been shielding humanity and all life from at least 2.4°C of global warming as at 2010 peak aerosols (Hansen).

    The GHGs already in the atmosphere warm the planet by 10°C as a requirement of physics. ~100ppm CO2-equivalent caused around 7°C of global warming during the Last Deglaciation.

    There’s no way to get GHGs out of the atmosphere. 1,100 billion tonnes of human CO2 plus vast amounts of other GHGs cause 10°C of warming.

    One billion tonnes = 3,000 Empire State Buildings.

    The planet now at ~1.3°C (multiyear average) of its 10°C equilibrium will push hard towards ever-hotter climates. Vast future global warming ensures that GHG concentrations will continue to rise for centuries due to feedbacks, ice melt, ocean warming and decline of land and ocean CO2 sinks.

  6. I was put to the test this past weekend. I hung out with normies. The idiocracy and reliance on technology was in full force. Never seen anything like it. The place I stayed was in an upscale neighborhood (just think yuppies and WASP’s). The goddamn house was controlled by Alexa. I couldn’t make a move without asking her permission. Lights, tv, music, air/heating, stove/oven… if you’re a luddite like me, then you might think I’m exaggerating here. No, the whole house was run by Alexa. First time I had ever seen this technology and the worst part for me was the endless questions being asked (usually pop culture related). “Alexa, what year is this movie from”. “Alexa, what other songs did this singer have”… I probably heard one thousand of these mindless trivial questions this weekend… it was a nightmare. 

    I had more fun when we were away from the house. Dinner, drinking, dancing, meeting new people… stuff I just don’t do anymore. I was able to blend in for the most part. Tried hard to avoid going toobin’. I’m the only doomer of my friends so they like to tease or genuinely engage. Going toobin’ refers to senator Ted Stevens a while back trying to define the internet (series of tubes) and his delivery was so incomprehensible that he became a joke:

    It’s very easy to go toobin’ when you start preaching collapse/overshoot to the sheep. I’ve done it many times. And I’m still guilty of it because it happened over the weekend a couple of times. So much easier to talk about it when you have time to think and write what you want to say. LOL. But I did have a couple conversations where I didn’t look like a complete jackass clone of Ted Stevens. And overall, I saw a pattern emerging… the normies don’t believe anything science related. Archaeology, anthropology, any type of dating (carbon, potassium-argon, uranium-lead), etc… nothing. When it comes to evidence or facts, they’re full-on atheists. I wised up after a while and just refused to engage in any doomerism talk.

    And like I said, I blended in pretty well, but by sunday morning I was ready to GTFO of dodge. I would not make that trip again… ever! And if you asked the couple I was staying with, I’m sure they would also prefer I never make the trip again. I had a good attitude going in, but by the end my hatred for humans had gone up a notch or two. 

    ps. I totally agree with Gaia’s line above about: “I have been lapping up your and Hideaway’s summation of the Predicament”… ya, that was some good stuff. I need to reread it a couple more times.

  7. Sarah Connor today wrote a good summary of James Hansen’s latest work. It feels like this one was written by her and not an AI.

    Notice that climate scientists have again been proven to be too optimistic (which is a euphemism for unpleasant reality denial).

    All of their forecasts since I started paying attention 20 years ago have been wrong in the wrong direction.

    https://www.collapse2050.com/its-worse-much-worse/

    The rate at which Earth is absorbing more heat than it emits has more than doubled in recent years.

    The report, published in Environment: Science and Policy for Sustainable Development, is authored by James E. Hansen and a team of leading climate scientists, including Pushker Kharecha, Makiko Sato, and others.

    Unlike many climate studies that focus on long-term projections or incremental trends, this report delivers a stark warning: global warming is now happening faster than expected, and some of the most widely used climate models, including those from the UN’s Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), underestimate the severity of the crisis.

    The authors argue that the pace of warming over the last decade has surpassed previous estimates, largely due to the reduction of cooling aerosols and a greater-than-expected climate sensitivity to greenhouse gases. Their work raises serious concerns about whether policymakers and the public fully grasp the scale and urgency of the situation.

  10. There’s so much going on it’s hard to decide what’s important.

    I’m thinking today’s Gaza events are what we should be paying attention to. The US brokered a ceasefire agreement between Hamas and Israel. Today Trump decided to break his own agreement and demand all hostages be released by noon Saturday or genocide will resume.

    Everyone now knows the US cannot be trusted and will use its power to support Israel regardless of agreements or international will or law.

    Col. Douglas Macgregor thinks this will spark a middle east war in March and this will send oil to $100 and crash the stock market thus negating the progress being made at rooting out corruption and waste.

    Should people be told?

    The image below, made with a screenshot from Berkeley Earth, shows an annual average temperature rise of 3°C or more in 2050 in China for each of the three scenarios looked at.

    China is important, it has a large well-educated population and a large part of global emissions is released in China. Some countries face even more dire prospects. Have people been told how dire the situation is? The general lack of climate action around the world suggests that people have not been sufficiently informed. Moreover, many scientists, journalists, judges, politicians and civil servants bluntly refuse to inform people.

  12. https://www.artberman.com/blog/what-will-energy-dominance-be-used-for/

    The energy part of Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent’s “3-3-3” plan aims to boost U.S. oil production by 3 million barrels/day by 2028, reinforcing Trump’s Energy Dominance push.

    But can it work? Critics say no—markets set prices, not presidents, and oil companies drill for profit, not politics. Companies like Chevron and ConocoPhillips are maintaining or reducing capital spending, focusing on financial stability over increased production.

    Critics miss the point. This isn’t market business-as-usual. Trump plans to supercharge production using emergency powers—a national energy emergency unlocks the National Emergencies Act and Defense Production Act to push projects through. Government, not markets, will drive the drill bit.

    Many wrongly believe shale is “turning over.” It won’t last forever, but production should hold through Trump’s term. A deep analysis of 54,000 Permian wells supports this, aligning with my projections.

    Permian output is set to plateau in 2025, holding for at least five years before shifting to lower-quality areas (Figure 1).

      The heart of the Permian Basin watermelon has already been eaten. Whats left, even in the cores is going to be gassier, less liquids productive, more expensive, and less profitable. Where the money will come from to drill all those wells is beyond my comprehension. You cannot pay back $130 billion of public and private long term debt, and retire and completly decommission 55,000 wells (YE24) with 40% returns on total investment over 12-14 year periods. At $7o oil that is all the return these wells can realize.

  14. Dr. Sabine Hossenfelder explains there may be a safe cheap way to use an atomic bomb to fix climate change, however there are a few issues that need to be addressed first, such as relocating the fish.

    The idea is to detonate a huge bomb under the ocean near a basalt formation to crush the rock which will then be distributed by the ocean to absorb CO2.

    https://www.rintrah.nl/we-have-a-big-problem/

    An analysis of CDC data shows that cases of influenza-like illnesses in doctors offices and urgent care centers appear to be higher than they’ve been in at least 28 years — when the agency first started tracking the information.

    That’s the United States. In Japan, it’s the same. They have never seen anything like this since they started measuring in 1999. Australia had its worst outbreak of influenza ever seen a few months ago.

    In the Netherlands, we now have so many people sick with influenza, that people are just being sent home from the hospital with oxygen, to get better at home.

    If it was just Japan, I would think “oh perhaps it’s because they were wearing masks”. But I think it’s pretty obvious by now, what it is: Immune system damage. It’s not some special mutation in Influenza, it’s not some new hybrid between regular influenza and H5N1 either. The reason is simple: The other viruses are misbehaving too, metapneumovirus in Japan reached unprecedented levels a few months ago too.

    What you’re looking at, is damage to the immune system, observed through most of the human population. It seems to be a combination of damage from SARS-COV-2 and damage from the vaccination campaign.
