Peak Everything Goes into Food, Water, Basic Metals -- Heinberg in Spokane, 9/17

Heinberg states this in the opening of Peak Everything:

"Nor does the matter end with natural gas and coal. Once one lifts one's eyes from the narrow path of daily survival activities and starts scanning the horizon, a frightening array of peaks comes into view. In the course of the present century we will see an end to growth and a commencement of decline in all of these parameters:

• Population
  Grain production (total and per capita)
  Uranium production
  Climate stability
  Fresh water availability per capita
  Arable land in agricultural production
  Wild fish harvests
  Yearly extraction of some metals and minerals (including copper, platinum, silver, gold, and zinc) "
