The scale of energy and material minerals that we need for this transition, i don't know how the market can allocate that. And if yu look at the world from a biophysical standpoint, if we are under investing in fossil fuels and in alternative technology, all that would require pulling energy in materials currently allocated to other sectors of society. Coppers, when we happen to like the best, because it's the most essential. Maybe you could finda replacement for lithium or cobalt, but you can't find a replacement for copper.
On this episode, we meet with legendary financial icon Kiril Sokoloff to take a bird’s eye view of the global energy/financial situation.
Why is the financial community so complacent about peak oil and the relationship between increasing energy scale and growth? Can we make predictions about the future by looking back at history?
