Energy Policy Heinberg 1-3 Gary Flomenhoft

Heinberg Chapter 1 How to gain an Energy Subsidy 1) Takeover 2) Tool Use 3) Specialization 4) Scope Enlargement 5) Drawdown

Takeover Biotic Potential / Competitive exclusion Use / divert: 40% Earth’s terrestrial NPP 25% Total NPP

ESA Listings and GDP $10 $9 $8 $7 $6 $5 $4 $3 R 2 = 98.4

Endangerment Causes Urbanization Agriculture Water diversions (e.g., reservoirs) Recreation, tourism development Pollution Domestic livestock, ranching Czech et al Bioscience 50(7):

Causes (cont.) Mineral, gas, oil extraction Non-native species Harvest Modified fire regimes Road construction/maintenance Industrial development Czech et al Bioscience 50(7):

Evolution of Tool Use Type of Tool: -Human energy for manufacture and use -External power for manufacture, human power for use -Human energy for manufacture, external energy for use -External energy for manufacture and use-defines industrial society

Specialization Technical-economic societies

Scope Enlargement Tools, resources, trade, transportation, globalization

Drawdown Deplete non-renewable stocks: Coal, oil, natural gas, uranium, minerals, etc. Dangers of Drawdown: Pollution Climate change Depletion

Complexity-diminishing returns

Complexity Increasing costs of: Maintaining organization and control Controlling conquered territory Taxation

American success Great natural resources Energy subsidies: slaves then fossil fuels Global trade

Heinberg Chapter 2-Party time How to gain an Energy Subsidy Cheap abundant Energy- Coal, oil, electrification
