Please note that this website is currently a work in progress! Lots of interesting data and statistics to come.
AND it's helpful to remember that this has to be complete in Europe, UK, Canada, USA, Australia by 2035 and worldwide by 2050.
basically nobody is paying attention and it's nearly 2019

I'd recommend his book, free on pdf:

He uses lot of numbers, nothing more than maybe 6th grade math, so if you disagree with him, you don't have to do anything except point out where his math is wrong.
Few people seem to like him, but will never show where he is wrong
