Lawns To Gardens - The "Energy Crisis Show"

Ok, that was funny as shit! "We're Nintendo kids, we don't know what the fuck we're dong". I totally LOVED that!

But yeah, you do have the right idea....Randy White. And btw, don't say you're nobody. That's bullshit. You definitely made a video worth a shit. :)

Thanks.

I love to hear discussion about Energy Crisis.

Its scary because the southwest has been in a drought for 10yrs. I really don't see the environment helping itself out for quite a awhile.

Energy crisis is a CON!

Right. Tell that to hard working people who are watching their money evaporate. I dare you.

Ignorance will remain bliss to you until it steals your food.

Do you think phoenix is a good place to live when the crisis really takes hold? I think no, but what's your opinion.

I would not live in Pheonix. Especially since America has not healed its race wounds. When the system fails, old blood wars will reignite and any place with bad blood between races will face violent clashes, especially as resources become more scarce.

People do not behave when they are hungry, and especially when they are angry AND hungry.

This is the reason Bright Neighbor will help communities survive.

I went to hit reply to your water comment and accidentally hit 'remove' smiro. Regarding growing food in the desert, if you take a look at Gaia's Garden (by Toby Hemenway), you can see that permaculture can turn harsh territory into a bountiful oasis, albeit, it takes time to root.

I don't know how much time Phoenix has, but I wouldn't bet on the southwest. Vegas is toast, especially as lake mead goes bye bye.

China & India didn't use much oil prior to 1990 and they still managed to feed a billion of their people. And what about Cuba when they lost over 70% of their oil imports overnight after the USSR collapsed in the early 1990s? It was a difficult transistion, but Cuba managed to switch from a petroleum based industrialized agricultural system to an organic one. And what about alternative energies? Don't you think if we could build an atomic bomb & send a man to the moon that we could solve this?

You have a link for that 9 sq meter stat? The best I've heard with intensive sustainable farming is 4k sq ft./person.
