WATCH: An Honest & Sensible Conversation about Global Energy | Scott Tinker

Great to see Scott here. I read the study commissioned by the DOE that Scott helped author on natural gas reserves in the 4 major US shale plays. As the US consumes around 30 trillion cubic feet of natural gas per year looks like, according to Scott’s study we’re lucky to have 50 years worth left. Add the fact we’re exporting 12.5 billion cubic feet per day (enough to heat 60 million American homes every day) so the IS exporters can make higher profits while the US domestic price rises and anyone with sense knows we better develop all forms of energy ASAP.

He totally ignoring the biggest parts of renewables story or any of the modern innovations in renewable energy. Solar panel farms no longer get knocked out by hail or snow, wind turbines are not getting barred. 95% of EV car batteries are recycled meaning they don't need to be mined over and over again. Nuclear is making a come back. All facts he is leaving out. I can go on and on about 100 things he's leaving out.

[@broonkhavar1461]

I'm no scientists, I'm just an electronics major. But I have been making the same arguments for years. All you need to do is look at a chart of energy density by source. The answers are clear. Nuclear, with all it's trade-offs, is still the ONLY technology that exists today that can possibly solve the world's need for energy (NEED, not want), while reducing emissions enough to matter on a global scale. Why? Energy density. Simple Joules per Kg of material. Then compare it to Lithium-Ion battery storage. Anyone who can do basic arithmetic can see that it's the only way out of the trap. Even then, we still need portable sources of energy, and when you compare Gasoline/Diesel/Natural Gas to Li-Ion or Solar you see why we still use it.

[@Neilazbiker]

​@@Randsurfer Here's what I got out of Dr. Miller's presentation. 1) It's obvious that oil and gas won't last forever. We have an electric future, just not at the schedules mandated by the government. There's no way California can go full EV by 2035. They lack generating capacity, a grid, infrastructure, and automobile manufactures just can't make that many EV. We all know this. Last week Ford, GM and Toyota pulled out of the EV market. 2) The poor can't afford expensive solar and wind. The Admin has a policy of scarcity, keeping people poor. A better way is to help the people become more wealthy, then not only can they afford cleaner energy, they care more about the environment. 3) Remember the clean, reliable and abundant triangle? Everything pollutes. The clean energy is polluting. Everything is a tradeoff. Too me, nuclear is the most obvious least bad solution. 4) India is just get started and they already said to F... Off, they are going for coal. Nuclear would be better. 5) And this is just my point of view. I'm an engineer. Most of my friends are educated and to the left. They LOVE flying to Europe and Machu Pichu. Yet, all of them are concerned about the climate, want heavy mandates, but know they won't have to change their life styles much. They can afford it. If it's so bad, why don't they change? Stop flying? They all have $300/m electric bills. I want them to lead by example instead of mandating poverty to the poor and lower middle class. That's what I got out of it, a reminder that every source of energy is a tradeoff, stop exporting our pollution, and the poor can't afford clean energy. I hope this helps. All the best Landsurfer.

I only wish more people would listen to talks like this one - and specifically this one. There need not be any emotional tie to this or any other so-called controversial topics. How many people will say “I feel like…” and how many say “I think that…” Last but not least, take the Thomas Sowell approach: There are no solutions, only tradeoffs. So we must ask ourselves these three questions. 1. At what cost? 2. Compared to what? 3. What data do we have to support?

[@donmacalpine3526]

Really??? This is 'the facts'?? As a former government forest scientist in Ontario, Canada who was fired in 1982 for daring to present THE FACTS about the abuse of Ontario's forests to see their demise despite warnings from forest scientists, this reminds me of the slick presentations of those who were only interested in protecting the status quo, no matter what the writing really was 'on the wall'. (By the way, as predicted by 1971, many of Canada's largest forest product mills had closed their doors, leaving devastated communities in their wake). Take one example of the deep hypocrisy behind this video. About 7 minutes in, Mr. Tinker credibly notes that 'poor countries cannot afford to clean up their environments'.... Real science does NOT exclude all the factors needed to be considered in any 'hypothesis' The reality IS that, for the sake of profiteering, only, vast resources on this planet have been removed from geographies that are now impoverished. This, unthankfully, comes at the hands of, as Mr. Tinker does imply, formerly rich nations which now teeter on the brink of major 'economic' crises BECAUSE they left so many parts of this planet impoverished, for their own gain. This FACT is something that big business, ESPECIALLY the Economic Geology field Mr. Tinker seems most vested in, refuse to acknowledge in slick presentations like this. Twenty minutes with slick pics does NOTHING to create 'civil dialogue' on a REAL PROBLEM facing our species. It merely serves to STEER the dialogue in the direction which the friends of 'the presenter' will sponsor and then applaud.

'Putin went into Ukraine and said I'm gonna weaponise gas' ...think about that for a minute. When German industralists and Gasprom with the blessing of the German govt, financed via Austria, agreed on Nord gas pipeline projects, who objected? The US, but they are on the other side of the Atlantic. When Biden was questioned about Nord 2 he said that if Ukraine is attacked then we will find a way to stop Nord 2. Very interesting comment about freedom and democracy in a commercial setting. Food for thought. If you read Jacques Bord's analysis of eastern Ukraine you will find that Ukraine increased its bombing of the Donbass exponentially with more talk from Biden that 'Russia would invade'. Ramp up the pressure then shift blame quickly and invert the truth. This is a US modus operandi. After Nord 2 was destroyed Victoria Nuland said its now a huge hunk of metal at the bottom of the sea. Blinken said it was a great opportunity for the US as they and Norway started sending gas to Germany at inflated prices to get German industry off cheap gas and stop them developing good relations with Russia.

Hello from austria and thank you for the access to this kind of information.This topic is decades old and still going on. Our postal trucks here in austria were electric allready in 1910 or something. There were also electric cars from 1905 like the Viktoria that could travel for 50 miles or 80 kilometers allready back then. I was also lucky to run into a Dr. who was in his late 70's 3 years ago in Vienna who told me about working for the government on a project in the 60's. While driving around the former minister back then in an electric car, the minister said to him something like "You will see, in the next 10 years Electric cars will rise to 10% to 20% of all cars". We are now coming to the end of 2023 and we were at 2.1% in reality while at the same time that is of course no real solution to anything. The left vs right ramble has to stop and politics and education have to return back to where they were. Seperate from each other as much as possible. When the time has come that professors get fired for asking and debating questions (and people in other fields of work) it is the time to ask questions rather than stop asking questions. There is no need for a better climate when we accept Monsantos approach for example of creating a seed monopoly etc. Politicians get elected for a reason and I can not understand why some managers have a law based responsibility but politicians don't. Nobody is accountable for anything and nobody is actually nobodies boss. What I found very interesting is, that someone like A. Getty sponsors the climate emergency fund which sponsory the climate glue people for example (who get paid and insurance for doing that by the way) while at the same time, her being in control of an oil empire her father built. Think about that. In reality, the costs for energy are rising and I think that is the goal. Even going green has only money as the goal. It is always because of money and this topic is no exception.

The saddest thing about this excellent talk is not that energy needs are inevitably increasing, but that this talk is promoted as an "Honest & Sensible Conversation" as though it is a rare and remarkable thing. Well, in fact, it is these days. No one converses, discusses or even debates anymore: they shout. They wave wildly, get emotional, bellow "I, me, myself" a lot. If we stopped shouting at each other and actually talked and kept our egos out of the way, we'd get a lot more done.

He said no matter how green the governments claim they want to push this agenda. He said it’s a very simple process. “You need energy to make energy,period,full stop.” He said it will always be a vicious cycle.

Would you do be responsible with your "individual freedom" to lessen your negative consumption impacts on the world?

[@user-gf6gf2iy2k]

Sadly, this video is pretty distopian too. Paints a pretty bad picture: we are currently unable to sustain our present lifestyles and alleviate the pollutive effects of them, and solar/wind are not sufficient to help. Nuclear might help. He didn't seem to offer any better direction for the future. Freedoms and responsibilities will obviously be critical - perhaps a user-pays approach to the cleanup costs of everyone's pollution will be a key driver. That way they can decide based on the costs of their actions.

@@user-gf6gf2iy2k Am a bit baffled by the reactions to this video. This data on ever growing consumption of fossil energies and CO2 has been out for decades and used by many (gov, COP, activitists, etc) to push doing something about it. And it is well known that current wind, solar, etc non-fossil energies are far from enough to curb the trend. Even Al Gore showed similar graphs. Except that this video stops there, no message about better ways to curb the trend, looks down on alternatives, and seems fatalistic. What did I miss ?

Excellent speech!! I love “ have you seen a lithium mine”. This is so true. Electric vehicles with batteries that eventually die is not the solution

[@5353Jumper]

So far the only solutions that have any improvement are bEV or not driving at all. Or some combination thereof. So if you are not a fan of EV then your choice is to stop driving and transportation. The partner solution is to have low emissions generation like wind and solar, or stop using electricity. Move toward low emissions refining and production, or stop consuming things. Low emissions heating and cooling, or we just bundle up and start migrating again. Those are the options and layers of solution options.

@johnnygreen7445 also... Batteries are recycled. We are working on recycling wind turbines. And yes, we are facing mass unemployment the next couple of decades because nearly every industry is reducing employment, and we are working to reduce consumption. One huge job loss will be in the petroleum and transportation industries for sure because the electrified alternatives and alternative generation are so much more efficient. This is why the smart people of the world not considered "wealth elite" are pushing for a massive increase in the value of labor. The only way to avoid mass starvation is to go back to single income households, where any one full-time job can support a modest household. And more jobs are full-time jobs with benefits. Go back to the days when working in a retail store, or a restaurant, or a factory is enough to support a whole family household. That is the only way to avoid mass starvation with the coming reduction in labor requirements. But you know, the wealth elite will resist raising the value of labor harder than anything else we are pushing them to do, so we are kinda stuck in this fate. But we will also face mass unemployment if the world falls to environmental disaster...so kinda a problem either way.

Thank you, I'm an engineer (manufacture, marine and nuclear) also a trained electrician. I am aware Of this world ,I have travelled and worked around it and observed what and how they can do things .I saw for example that as we reduced our Mercantile Marine fleet as we closed our coal fired power stations, Russia for example in one year built 6 new bulk carriers to export their coal , to Asia/China etc. This information is freely available and tells anyone who can read, think and do maths about the reduction (or lack of) that is actually happening in the reduction of use in this regard. Now this leads me to speculate -- A/ do all the people who are telling us to stop using most of the energy plants we currently have within 2 to 3 years, whilst at the same time removing most of the transport system from this nation ( fossil fuel cars) to use electric cars (where there is an insufficient amount of kilowatts currently available) to charge them? B/ The least polluting form of electrical generation is by nuclear power stations (like it or not) those which maintain our National grid are nearing their working time limit and there has been a negative amount of thoughts about replacements. Sorry but the facts are there for all (people and government's) . A country without power,(Energy) simply can not function and this infrastructure take years to plan, construct and get operational, not to mention the training of people to accomplish all of this, (A.I) won't hack this 1. There is an element of fear at work here driving people to become a panicked mob, without facts or thought but who fail to be practical and realise that if they get their way the world may still end ,,, but our part of it will end sooner.

Don't apologize for being on your guard. We have been lied to so often by so many, for their own personal gain, that we have every right to be suspicious. The danger of lying to people so much and so often, is that if and when someone chooses to tell the truth, no one wants to believe it. It's the predictable response the classic example of "the boy who cried "WOLF" too often. No one believed him when he finally told the truth and suffered the consequences.
