If you haven't seen it yet, this is your chance to see it and meet some great speakers on this topic.  We are entering a new era in humanity - we are at or just near the global peak in oil production and our modern society is extremely dependant on oil and we are totaly unprepared for the decline in oil production.  The END of SUBURBIA is very successful at introducing the topic in an entertaining way.  There are many ways we, as a community, can respond, but first we must educate ourselves and understand the crisis.  \r\n\r\nThe guests at these events include Julian Darley (author of High Noon for Natural Gas and founder of The Post Carbon Institute and Global Public Media), Michael Ruppert (a Los Angeles local who founded www.fromthewilderness.com and is very active in the 9\/11 truth movement and educating people about peak oil) , Gregory Greene (The END of SUBURBIA director), Joan Stevens (LA Permaculture Guild leader) and Lara Morrison (LA Eco-Village leader).","numcomment":0,"fileurl":"\/uploads\/2004\/09\/theendofsuburbia.jpg","filesize":"7.1 kibibytes","article_url":"\/news\/2004\/09\/116652.php","image":{"original":"\/uploads\/2004\/09\/theendofsuburbia.jpg","small":"\/uploads\/2004\/09\/theendofsuburbia.jpgthumb.jpg"}},"attachments":[],"comments":[]}
