Our devotion to political correctness, human rights and the sanctity of human life is born of a full belly. We have developed these notions as a result of having full bellies.

Peak oil has barely if ever hit the NYT pages, much less the front page. Now it is mentioned at least, but as a minor, fringe view, to be scoffed at. What did Gandhi say? First they ignore you, then they ridicule you, then they fight you, then you win. (Or something like that.)

17 And we say,

"We shall not.
We want more.
Let more come,
As always,
From the have-nots."

Amen.

Yeah, well 4 dollars a gallon in the US will force a lot of people out of their cars and make them take the train to work.

Too bad we don't have any trains.

From Eli, a quote we should have on hand as gasoline hits $4 - which, in some locations, won't be long from now.

The only really sustainable and renewable energy is that passing through the Earth's life systems - we can't call it sustainable or renewable if we obstruct it and prevent it from fullfilling its function, as might be the case with widescale wind, solar, tidal, or biofuel.

If only all good citizens would pick just one politician to spit on, maybe we could drown our problems.
I said spit, but I was thinking something a lot more unfriendly.

I nominate this for quote of the year 2007, at the very least quote of the summer!

What we are seeing happening now will be unlike anything that has happened before.

The Great Depression was an economic crisis what we are facing is an economic crisis and a physical crisis. During the great depression the physical energy was there to get us out.

Now as we enter this new depression, whenever we try and grow are way out we are going to be smacked down by PO.

I question the nature of today's "money." I think the only real capital is natural capital. The paper and electronic stuff is a human overlay entirely derivative of the natural base, which is in bad shape and getting worse.
