<3 Bruce SterlingBruce Sterling takes Peak Oil paranoia to task by presenting an annotated version of James Kunstler's essay, The Long Emergency. It's beautiful. I'm still coming to grips with the whole Peak Oil idea, but a good chunk of it strikes me as incredibly bogus, so this was fun to read. I'm with Bruce here. The best possible thing for humanity would be to sever our dependance on fossil fuels and develop sensible alternatives. It's possible that transition won't be particularly easy or fun, but it will happen because it has to happen. That's what peak oil means to me. comments:This post is archived. Comments are disabled.
