Home | Oil Depletion Protocol
by stanA Plan for a Sensible Energy Future...
As we move into an era of oil depletion and energy constraint, everything from transportation to medicine to food to climate change response strategies will be affected. Almost everything we do is dependent on oil.
The transition to a future of reduced oil supply will require the development of clean, reliable, and renewable energy sources and reduced oil production and consumption. The Oil Depletion Protocol will allow us to accomplish both - simply, conservatively, and cooperatively. It is a plan for a sensible energy future.

Post Carbon Institute | Reduce / Produce - Reduce Consumption, Produce Locally
by stan & 1 otherOUR MISSION
The mission of Post Carbon Institute is to assist communities in the effort to Relocalize and adapt to an energy constrained world.
Post Carbon Institute is a think, action and education tank offering research, project tools, education and information to implement proactive strategies to adapt to an energy constrained world. The development of Post Carbon Institute came out of concern for the environmental, social, political and economic ramifications of global over-reliance on cheap energy.
Our main response to these concerns is the strategy of Relocalization, which aims to rebuild societies based on the local production of food and energy, and the Relocalization of currency, governance and culture. The main goals of Relocalization are to increase community energy security, strengthen local economies, and dramatically improve environmental conditions and social equity.

Oléocène : site dédié à la fin de l'âge du pétrole
by stan & 10 others (via)Le monde que nous connaissons est appelé à connaître dans un futur très proche des changements radicaux. Notre civilisation est sur le point d'affronter la plus grande crise qu'elle ait jamais connue. Une crise qui ne s'est jamais produite auparavant, et qu'elle ne connaîtra jamais plus. Cette crise, c'est la fin de l'âge du pétrole. Comme tout le monde, vous savez sans doute que le pétrole ne durera pas éternellement et, si vous deviez donner une date, vous diriez sans doute qu'il en reste suffisamment pour quarante ou cinquante ans. Malheureusement, la réalité est toute autre.
