TD in the Pub is back for 2018! It's a relaxed space where folks can kick back, grab a drink, and learn about the world we live in and what we can do about it! Anyone is welcome... this month Craig, a Darebin local will be talking about oil and energy. 

World population increased along with our energy usage and technology;  from slave power, wood power, coal power, electricity, and oil. This talk will be looking at the energy supplies of individual countries and the world, to consider how uses have changed from the 1970s to the present. We will then discuss what this means for us today and regarding our energy future. Craig's practical experience working as an engineer in offshore and onshore oil and gas, and theoretical research he has done will help us understand the complex energy system we rely on.
