Paul Roberts on the Campbell Conversations

Paul Roberts is an environmental journalist and the author of the widely acclaimed books "The End of Oil" and "The End of Food." In this conversation he relates the importance of a concept known as 'peak oil,' and considers possible bridge fuels to a new energy economy, including natural gas and nuclear power.

There are options available, but none are easy- we will need a lot of oil to get away from oil.
