More info

Ever since a dark, oily liquid gushed out of the ground in Pennsylvania in August 1859, human life has been turned upside down. The era of cars and planes, tank armies, nylon and space flights began. Oil smells not only of sulfur, but also of huge, scary money, power and secrets. The sun never sets over the Empire of Oil. Every day, hour and second, somewhere in the world, it is pumped, transported, distilled and turned into a variety of absolutely necessary things. Some say: the world is sitting on an oil needle. But the situation is much worse: oil is not a drug. She is the blood of civilization. Great amplifier of everything - both good and bad. Either a gift or a curse. "Oil is the excrement of the devil, it brings trouble," said one of the founders of OPEC, Perez Alfonso. For 125 years, mankind has spent one trillion barrels. It will spend the next trillion in just 30 years. According to some estimates, the oil reserves on Earth are just over two trillion barrels. Are we ready for a world without oil? What will it be? Mass famine? Food war? Cannibalism? Or maybe, on the contrary: the depletion of oil and gas is the very stimulus that will push humanity to the transition to a new, higher level of civilizational development? But there may be only one attempt.
