J’ai en particulier apprécié les chiffres de la Banque mondiale en moyenne décennale : 1971–1980 : +3,80% par an 1981–1990 : +3,25% par an 1991–2000 : +2,87% par an 2001–2009 : +2,38% par an ce qui nous fait clairement un ralentissement de l’ordre d’un demi-point de croissance par décennie.

Par contre, si on va piocher dans l’EROEI ça tient déjà plus la route … mais c’est un autre sujet.

            (The burgeoning export market for wood pellets stems in part from the renewable energy requirement the European Union imposed on its members. EU nations must generate 20% of their electricity from renewable sources by 2020. The renewable energy requirement has led to an increase in U.S. exports of wood fuel pellets to Europe, according to a recent report in the Wall Street Journal.)

Before the meat goes into the smoker, it needs at least a little seasoning. Dry rubs vary from pitmaster to pitmaster; some like to incorporate coffee, some go with straight-up Lawry’s seasoning salt. There are near-infinite rub recipes and dry rubs you can buy, but this one comes from The Salt Lick, a Texas BBQ institution. Reviewers use it on just about everything, including brisket, ribs, chicken wings, pork, steaks, salmon and even asparagus. The exact ingredients are a secret. The label discloses only salt, black pepper, cayenne and spices. It just might become dad’s secret weapon too, or at least inspire him to create his own unique blend.

That would be their summer and fall menu item of charred greens with local seasonal vegetables, ponzu, Parmesan and crispy shallots. Other summer menu staples include smoked brisket and smoked barbecue pork sandwiches, green chili pork tacos, kielbasa sausages and elote — grilled sweet corn with lime crema, cotija cheese and tajin.

En quoi est-ce un problème fondamental pour nous ? Parce que sans moyens supplémentaires pour améliorer l’accessibilité, qui se dégrade au fil du temps, la production va stagner avant de baisser. Et donc exit la croissance économique. Or notre fonctionnement socio-économique est basé sur la croissance, au point que nos dirigeants estiment normal un déficit de 3%, lequel n’est réellement supportable que dans un contexte de croissance économique d’environ 3%. Sans croissance, notre fonctionnement socio économique devient lourdement inégalitaire, et donc aggrave les inégalités, et bien plus encore le ressenti des inégalités, et donc le tissu social se dégrade … Or, sans consensus social, pas de fonctionnement économique, pas de production, donc plus de consommation. Ce qui a déjà commencé à craquer, c’est le lien social, pas la production pétrolière ! Et c’est bien plus grave !

On the Timberline series, Traeger introduced a feature it calls WiFire. It’s the company’s term for WiFi connectivity, and it allows you to monitor the grill remotely and send recipe-specific settings via a companion app. I know it sounds a lot like just the latest gimmicky culinary tool to sync with your phone, but there’s a lot more to it than that. A process that takes as much time as most barbecue does greatly benefits from your being able to monitor it from a distance. At the very least, it means you’re not running back and forth to keep tabs on things for six-plus hours. The Timberline series’ WiFi connection allows you to do just that.

« les tenants du pic pétrolier affirment que ce dont dépent la croissance du PIB, c’est du volume par jour de pétrole disponible. » Et ? En occident le volume consommé décroit depuis bien longtemps sans que le PIB décroisse lui. Gain d’efficacité, gain de raffinage ou simple décorrélation. Ça ne prêche pas en faveur du pic.
