1. The rise of the Sustainable Culture from the Ashes of the Oil Empire Dr. Susan Krumdieck NZ ESR Conference 2004

2. A Long Time Ago… Whales started to get scarce and, behold, the ground in Oklahoma spouted forth oil And there was light, and the light grew

3. And the Oil Empire was born… " supply creates demand " Jean Baptiste Say (1767-1832)

4. And the Law of the Land was

5. And so the people prospered… 19301950197019902010 0 10 20 30 40 50 Global Annual Hydrocarbon Production Fossil Fuel Water Minerals

6. And technology could accomplish anything… Everything will be alright, as long as we form a federation and find the infinite energy source Dilithium Crystals

7. Then some people became concerned

8. And sometimes when they thought about the future….

9. It seemed like things were getting out of control “Sometime in the 23rd century...the survivors of war, overpopulation and pollution are living in a great domed city, sealed away from the forgotten world outside, controlled by a powerful computer”

10. “Without vision the people perish…” “What we see is not the old city being resurrected. It's something new that will be born out of the ashes of the old...."

11. But nice, smart people were working on answers (J. Rifkin)

12. We need cheap, plentiful energy We need cheap, plentiful energy Demand is projected to grow by 40% Demand is projected to grow by 40% We need more energy for economic growth We need more energy for economic growth We will require new production We will require new production Clean coal Clean coal But the answers didn’t seem to be answers

13. And many were troubled… Righteous warnings of impending disaster Righteous warnings of impending disaster Denial – Forward self-projection Denial – Forward self-projection Blame – Find those at fault Blame – Find those at fault Fatalistic Acceptance – Tragedy Fatalistic Acceptance – Tragedy

14. And they dreamed of the future of the Oil Empire becoming the Hydrogen Economy

15. Now a new age dawns Unconstrained Supply 1930195019701990201020302050 0 10 20 30 40 50 Constrained Supply Global Annual Hydrocarbon Production Total Hydrocarbons (after Campbell, 2001 model)

16. Question: How do we have a high quality of life, if there are limited resources?

17. Continuity Theory + - Quality Economy Technology Sustainable Factors Change Factors Regulation Trade Innovation Performance Impacts Nature Continuity Model

18. How do we discover continuity?
