Help needed: EDM 1453 - ENERGY AND FOOD PRICES AND PEAK OIL

Post by PowerSwitchJames »

John Hemming MP, Chair of APPGOPO, has tabled the Early Day Motion below. We encourage you to email your MP asking them to sign this Motion. You can email your MP through www.writetothem.com

EDM 1453 - ENERGY AND FOOD PRICES AND PEAK OIL
http://edmi.parliament.uk/EDMi/EDMDetai ... ESSION=891
29.04.2008


Hemming, John
That this House notes that current movements in energy and food prices are in conformance with the predictions as to what would happen as oil production peaks; and calls for the Government urgently to review its predictions as to when peak oil occurs with a view to determining whether or not urgent policy adjustments are called for.

Unfortunately, most of these people are asleep. Anyone with the time and inclination to help wake them up, please do so.

I got a postcard this morning from the house of commons to say that he had received my enquiry and would deal with it! That's more than I got last time when I cut and pasted text via the write to me link. I will let you all know what response I get.

I think he was chief economist, not chief executive, but that makes his response even more interesting.
