Inserting Peak Oil into the Conversation

by KrisCan, originally published by KrisCan.com  | Nov 23, 2009

Part 1 of KrisCan's Peak Oil conversation with Richard Heinberg about the limits to growth, the GDP measuring claims on our resources and the importance of communicating with our policy makers. He talks about the need to move away from the idea of continuous growth and begin to measure quality of life as a marker of success.
