Peak Opportunity - Food, Energy and Community May 25, 2006

Graham Strouts, Co-ordinator of the Practical Sustainability Course will speak on "Peak Opportunity - Food, Energy and Community". The world is reaching a turning point. Having created a society almost completely dependent on cheap fossil fuels for nearly every aspect of its economy, we our now facing an uncertain future with rising fuel prices, shortages and eventually rationing. In this talk, Graham will explain why the crisis is happening and what communities around the world are doing to prepare. He will discuss the approach offered by Permaculture, a system of sustainable design, and talk about the Kinsale Energy Descent Action Plan. - This series of events is not to be missed!
