Fossil fuels have powered human growth and ingenuity for centuries. Now that we're reaching the end of cheap and abundant oil and coal supplies, we're in for an exciting ride. While there's a real risk that we'll fall off a cliff, there's still time to control our transition to a post-carbon future.

A deeper analysis of the crises we face, and possible solutions we can work on right now can be had HERE: http://j.mp/PCReader

Agriculture in every area is required.

World Engineers re-engineer cities wit knowledge of resources via combine companies. Willing people will work for free as food is issued equally to everyone.

Gov't structure rebuilt.

Science loving humans will find their way to contribute to the world. Math, Art, Writing, loving ppl will find their way to help. Since there basically will no competition to live..... Cause everyone has a talent that can help others. No one lives soley for themselves.

[KhyoteJinkens]

Every major manufactuer combine, every food company combine. Almost every competing business combine.

Have a population count. Relay to combined businesses for them to collectively strategize usage of resources.

TV from 7-4 will be for interactive class for children via Xbox kinect and shit like that. No school buses required.

Cars only driven on weekends, ISSUED law.

Internet will remain the same. Schools free.

I HAVE A COLLEGE DEGREE AND I SOUND LIKE PIGLET SO YOU KNOW I'M SINCERE AND INTERESTED IN THE COMMONWEALTH OF ALL PEOPLES.

wow, this kicks ass of the "normal" education in school

watching drawings simultaneously with words, makes it so much easier to understand and remember

[Viracocha711]

675 people are USEFUL IDIOTS for the Fossil Fuel Industry & are threatening everyone's children!

[UniversEEEEE]

rofl at hemp, switching oil for hemp isn't gonna work, that's just another retard fix, oh we run out of oil, let's use this shit now...ppl need to learn to live with less fuel, wtf do u need so much fuel for anyway? ride a bike instead of driving a car. Growing hemp all over the place isn't good cos animals and wildlife can't survive with just 1 plant being grown, we need the ecosystem to work...

[benc1978]

[InquisitiveSpanish]
