Oil Prices: It Gets Worse - TIME: Nov 7, 2007 5:41am 3 reviews petroleum, oil, peak-oil
http://www.time.com/time/business/article/0,8599,1681362,00.html; "Oil prices hit a record high of $97 a barrel on Tuesday, but the next generation of consumers could look back on that price with envy. The dire predictions of a key report on international oil supplies released Wednesday suggest that oil prices could move irreversibly over the $100 a barrel threshold in the not too distant future, as the global economy faces a serious energy shortage."

Peak oil: More than cars | Gristmill: The environmental news blog | Grist: Nov 1, 2007 6:50am 1 review petroleum, peak-oil
http://gristmill.grist.org/story/2007/10/31/122048/85; From the page: "Now, I'm no peak oil doomer (by the way, when you're talking with peak oil types, be sure to use the word "doomer" frequently -- they love it!), but it seems to me this is a slightly pinched perspective on the oil problem. Transportation represents 69% of our oil use; light vehicles are 61% of that; thus, what all these folks are discussing, personal vehicles, are about 40% of overall U.S. oil consumption. That 40% is worrisome, but the other 60% is what keeps the peak oilers up at night. Rapid and continuing escalation in the price of oil will affect virtually every corner of the economy. It will make raw materials more expensive to extract; construction more expensive; infrastructure improvement more expensive; shipping freight more expensive; industrial agriculture more expensive; food itself more expensive; on and on. Oil is not confined to the personal transportation sector -- it's the foundation of industrial economies."

baloghblog: Preparation for the Future (Thoughts for 30-somethings): Oct 23, 2007 6:46pm 1 review petroleum, peak-oil, debt, preparation
http://baloghblog.blogspot.com/2005/05/preparation-for-future-thoughts-for-30...; From the page: "Well, I have been digesting The Long Emergency, by James Howard Kunstler. It is a bleak vision of the future of America, with declining oil supplies. I, like the author, would not live to see many of the changes that he describes in his idea of the future, but I do believe that there are many things that people in our generation could do to prepare to face any eventual hardship. I will lay out what I plan to do personally to get myself, my finances, my family and my home more self sustaining, and ready for whatever may come our way."

http://resourceinsights.blogspot.com/2007/10/willits-meets-s-curve.html; From the page: "But even Willits has those who don't take readily to change. For them certainty is very important. Will relocalization actually work? Does it really have advantages over the globalized economy we now live in? Is the change consistent with values I already hold?"
