Congressmen critique National Petroleum Council on Peak Oil Concerns

http://www.eenews.net/tv/2007/07/23/

What comes up with this link is a video of a brief press conference with Tom Udall (D-NM) and Roscoe Bartlett (R-Md) critiquing the National Petroleum Council's report on peak oil. The site is a good spot to learn about energy and environmental concerns. There is an interesting article, for example, on how livestock farmers can trap and exploit methane from their manure. This reduces their costs, and makes a dent in the production of methane, a greenhouse gas.

[Roscoe Bartlett is an example of a real public servant in my opinion, thanks to his advocacy of peak oil. John Spratt of South Carolina is another, with his concern about fiscal stability, but he has nothing to do with the subject of this post.-- hbf]
