PEAK OIL
PeakOil.Net - The Association for the Study of Peak Oil (ASPO)
DieOff.com - Petroleum geologists have known for 50 years that global oil production would "peak" and begin its inevitable decline within a decade of the year 2000. Moreover, no renewable energy systems have the potential to generate more than a fraction of the power now being generated by fossil fuels.
In short, the transition to declining energy availability signals a transition in civilization as we know it.
