Jack Keller: Understanding Peak Water
---------------------------------
Jack Keller had a long career as an internationally recognized expert in the design, implementation, and management of irrigation systems. He spent many decades sharing his expertise by consulting municipalities, corporations, and governments about efficient irrigated agricultural development; river-basin water management and conservation planning; irrigation water monitoring, verification and conservation planning; and developing efficient low-cost irrigation technologies for small farms.
We had Jack on as an interview guest two years ago to speak about one of the greatest and least appreciated predicaments facing society today: Peak Water. And just a few weeks ago, he and I agreed that he'd return as a guest in December with an update on how the situation has evolved since.
With heavy heart, I'm saddened to report that Jack Keller died unexpectedly this week at age 85. He was in the midst of preparing for yet another international consulting trip, this time to South America -- sharing his passion and talents until the very end. We're running his initial interview below in memoriam.
We'll miss you, Jack. ~ Adam
---------------------------------
Similar to oil and other key natural resources that are mined and consumed, water is subject to the same exponential trends. Both surface supply and underground fossil stores of clean water are depleting at alarming rates, and the energy & economic costs of extraction are swiftly increasing.
Water is our most precious natural resource (well, perhaps after oxygen). Advances in irrigation in the past century ushered in tremendous prosperity (the "green revolution"), particularly in food production, power generation, and a dramatic increase in the supportable populations for vast regions of land. If the water supply in future years dwindles to less than today's, those societal gains are going to have to retreat to some extent.

For those asking how best to SUPPORT Chris & Peak Prosperity in their efforts to provide continuing coverage of news that matters: https://www.peakprosperity.com/enroll/
Looking at Ben Hunt's "case, case, case, cluster, cluster...BOOM!" progression for covid-19, more and more countries are now entering the late cluster stage.
That means, expect Italy, Iran, South Korea, Japan, Spain, France, Germany, the US and a number of others to enter the "BOOM!" phase shortly.That's when hospitals become hopelessly overwhelmed, deaths begin skyrocketing, and government mass lockdowns get enacted.
We're not saying this to scare you. We just want you emotionally prepared for what's likely coming.
Look at the phase change in attitude that has happened in the past 2 weeks. The public went from complacent to panicked. The markets tipped from greed to extreme fear.
That's with less than 2 thousand known covid-19 cases in the US. What will be like if the models are correct, and we have *4 million* cases in two months?
Hopefully you watched our update yesterday in which Chris walked through the Adjustment Response progression. Make sure you and those around you are taking the time now to process your own, so that when the real crisis gets started, you're ready to face it.The time to prepare is now over. Now it's about managing through what's coming.
Get ready. And stay safe!

Full Description and Discussion can be found at: http://www.peakprosperity.com/podcast/82232/neil-howe-fourth-turning-has-arrived
In 1996, demographers William Strauss and Neil Howe published the book The Fourth Turning. This study of generational cycles ("turnings") in America revealed predictable social trends that recur throughout history, and warned of a coming crisis (a "fourth turning") based on this research.
Fourth turnings are defined by disorder and great changes brought on by a breakdown of the systems and operating principles that dominated the prior three turnings.

CHRIS
chris-and-becca-martenson-the-magic-of
The Peak Prosperity annual seminar is just a little over a month away now.
It will be held from April 6-9th, at its traditional location, the bucolic Rowe Conference Center in Rowe, Massachusetts. More information regarding the seminar and how to register can be found by clicking here.
So what exactly happens at these seminars?
That's the focus of this week's podcast. Chris sits down with his wife Becca, who is an integral presenter during the Rowe weekend (along with Chris and me), to shed light on the material and the "magic" that happens when bringing like-minded PPers from all over the world together for several days.
Why come? What happens there? What can you expect to get out if it if you attend?
The Martensons, who have been offering and honing this annual gathering longer than I've known them, lay it all out here.

EL CR
el-crash-course-cap-tulo-6-qu-es-el
El dinero es una creación humana tan esencial que, si de repente desapareciese, en su lugar surgiría espontáneamente otra forma de dinero, que podría ser, por ejemplo, vacas, tabaco, pan, cáscaras de frutos secos o incluso conchas de nautilo. Pero, entonces, ¿qué es de verdad el dinero?
El usamericano Chris Martenson se doctoró en ciencias en la Duke University (Durham, North Carolina). Es autor del Crash Course (http://www.chrismartenson.com), que rápidamente recibió grandes elogios y alcanzó una enorme popularidad en su versión inglesa original. El Crash Course pretende ayudarles a comprender la naturaleza de algunos retos de extraordinaria gravedad para nuestra economía y su futura prosperidad. Lo que están ustedes a punto de ver es una versión muy resumida de un seminario de entre 6 y 8 horas que Chris Martenson ha estado impartiendo desde hace cuatro años en su país, Usamérica.
Gracias a Manuel Talens, quien ofreció gratuitamente su tiempo y esfuerzo para traducirlo al español, nos complace presentarles el Crash Course de Chris Martenson en español. Esperamos que les sea provechoso.

VACCI
vaccine-for-covid-great-news-or-not-so
As we edge closer to a vaccine, there's a lot of excitement. Of course there is, who doesn't want this era to close so we can get back to our other lives?
But it's still early, and while excitement is afoot, some caution is warranted.
Also, in this episode, the UK has (finally!) decided to distribute vitamin D to its most vulnerable populations. At last!
Why wasn't this done sooner and why not in more places? Those are very good questions.
Finally - what would I do if I caught Covid? I'd use teh EVMS protocol. I cover that and it's linked below.

ART B

Full description and comments at: https://www.peakprosperity.com/podcast/114066/art-berman-think-oil-getting-expensive-aint-seen-nothing-yet
After issuing clear warnings on this program that sub-$50 oil prices were going to be short-lived, oil expert and geological consultant Art Berman returns to the podcast this week to explain why today's $70 oil prices will go higher -- likely much higher -- and start materially contricting world economic growth.
Art explains how the current glut of oil created by the US shale boom -- along with high crude output by both OPEC and non-OPEC producers -- is a temporary anomaly. Fundamentally, we are not finding nearly as much oil as we need to continue the trajectory of the global demand curve. And at the same time, we're extracting our reserves at a faster rate than ever. That's a mathematical recipe for a coming supply crunch -- it's not a matter of if, but when.

CRASH
crash-course-chapter-17a-peak-oil-by
Chapter 17a - Peak Oil: Energy is the lifeblood of any economy and a steady supply of energy is necessary to maintain the status quo, while an ever-increasing supply is needed to grow an economy. In this chapter, Dr. Chris Martenson explains that Peak Oil is not a theory, rather it is a description of how oil production increases over time, reaches a peak, then declines. Evidence points to a global production peak in the near future, which is troubling since the U.S. imports two-thirds of its oil and relies on it to much of its transportation and food production needs.
