	This week's GAO Peak Oil Report brings to an end the submissions to the National Petroleum Council's Supply Task Force. This Global Oil & Gas Study was initiated by USA Energy Secretary Bodman. I was humbled to be invited to contribute and engage in a teleconference with Colin Campbell, Jean Laherrère, Robert Hirsh, Doug Low, Steve Andrews. Albert Bartlett & Ron Swenson. The second phase included Roscoe Bartlett, Roger Bentley, Mark Gaffigan, Richard Heinberg, Matt Simmons & Randy Udall. Mark represented the GAO and will be making public its review of Peak Oil in March. Please take a few minutes to peruse TrendLines Presentation. The release this month of the UN's IPCC AR4 underscores the necessity for integrated national energy policies. The highlight of course of the last month was meeting Stephen Harper, Canada's new Conservative Prime Minister, in the Yukon to open the Canada Winter Games. It's been as cold as -42C this Winter. Where's all that Global Warming the IPCC promised, eh?!!
