 Our actions are having a devastating effect on Earth's climate.

This picture is taken from the transition towns primer.

We are running out of cheap, plentiful oil.  All the key elements of industrial societies - transportation, manufacturing, food production, home heating, construction - are totally reliant on oil. 

 

“…oil price is very high because probably we're not too far short from peak production if we're not already there.”

(Helen Clark, New Zealand Prime Minister 2006)
