| Peak Oil: Gas Prices, Supply Depletion & Energy Crisis SHORT |
 |
We are entering the Peak Oil era. The growth of
oil production is slowing, driving up oil and
gasoline gas prices, firing inflation, driving
unemployment, straining our global economy, and
threatening to collapse our entire system. We are
reaching Peak Oil and we are unprepared. Teacher
Aaron Wissner, in a compact 10 minutes video
summary, details Peak Oil, the evidence, the
impacts, and the solutions. See the full one-hour
video at LocalFuture.org. Also, at YouTube, see
the conclusion, of that presentation, part 5 of 5,
which highlights the impacts, underlying problem,
and solutions to Peak Oil.

Is the age of cheap oil about to come to an end?
According to many experts, we are about to reach
the point of "peak oil" -- the level at which
supply can no longer keep up with demand. This,
say the doomsayers, could send economies spinning
into turmoil and up-end our comfortable, urban
lifestyles. But others claim predictions like this
are simply scaremongering. They believe supply
will match demand for decades to come. So who's
telling the truth? 'Peak Oil' investigates.

| PERMACULTURE & PEAK OIL: Beyond 'Sustainability' |
 |
David Holmgren is co-originator (with Bill
Mollison) of the permaculture concept and author
of the recent book, PERMACULTURE: Principles and
Pathways Beyond Sustainability. He talks about
the need to move beyond the lulling hope that
'green tech' breakthroughs will allow world-wide
'sustainable consumption' to the recognition that
dwindling oil supplies inevitably mean a mandatory
'energy descent' for human civilization across
the planet. He argues that permaculture
principles provide the best guide to a peaceful
societal 'powering down."
