Description: 在令人印象深刻的大画幅照片中，Edward Burtynsky记录了石油流进现代社会的轨迹。从开采的井架到输送的输油管道再到消费的汽车引擎，一直到石油峰值后的残局。（注：石油峰值理论(Peak Oil Theory)是美国著名石油地质学家哈伯特(M.K.Hubbert)提出的。）

Edward Burtynsky拍摄的石油风景

Vast industrial landscapes reveal how oil underpins the speed and scale of modern life. One liter of gasoline represents 23 metric tons of ancient carbon, requiring 500 years of photosynthetic growth to produce the 30 billion barrels used annually. At current consumption, the world’s known reserves will last only about 45 years. Capturing these realities through photography highlights the urgent need to address the looming energy crisis.
