1) The relative economic decline in any one region, as quantified by a relative decline in per capita GDP, will be proportional to the relative decline in per capita petroleum consumption rate for that region. It is inherent in my PIE analysis that the future import and export trends for each region have been accounted for, and, for the purpose of this analysis, I am going to assume that alternative fossil fuels could not or will not be ramped up in time to make much of a difference for the one area that petroleum has been critical for economic growth: transportation.
What will be your focus this year? What do you think is going to happen in 2013?

[quote]Previously the Bureau's heat index was capped at 48°C (118.4°F), but now recorded temperatures of over 50°C (122°F) have pushed the limit of the scale to an unheard of 54°C, which is equivalent to 129°F.
We are well past the time of niceties, of avoiding the dire nature of what is unfolding, and politely trying not to scare the public."Liz Hanna, climate scientists
"The scale has just been increased today and I would anticipate it is because the forecast coming from the bureau's model is showing temperatures in excess of 50 degrees," David Jones, head of the bureau's climate monitoring and prediction unit, told reporters.[/quote]

[quote] Dear Readers, I begin this post as my preceding one ended: with the graph of the forecast for petroleum production contained in the last annual report of the International Energy Agency (IEA), referring to its central (or main) scenario on New Policies. This graph, as earlier mentioned, shows that on a global level production of crude oil soon will begin its decline.[/quote]
