In West Texas, wind is the new oil, but this time around it is cleaner, renewable, and distributed, meaning that it generates revenue and opportunity for the communities in which it is installed. A couple of weeks ago I had the opportunity to attend a seminar on wind power in West Texas, where wind is [...]]]></description>

    The concept of a &#34;photosynthetic ceiling&#34; was first introduced in Jared Diamond's book Collapse. Though Diamond certainly did not pioneer the idea, as far as I can tell he was the first to use the easily digestible term &#34;photosynthetic ceiling&#34;, often referred to in other studies as human appropriation of terrestrial [...]]]></description>

    Projections of future renewable energy use are dismal.  Yes, total renewable use will increase in the next 20 years, but so will total energy consumption.  So we'll see more use of wind, solar, and biodiesel, while the fossil fuel market continues to expand to meet growing demand.  According [...]]]></description>

    This post takes its name from an article in the Guardian written by columnist George Monbiot.  The columnist illustrates this woeful futility by taking a similar stance to my own against biofuels.  Monbiot, citing a Friends of the Earth report, explains that the European quest for a fossil fuel [...]]]></description>

    Is the call for decentralized power structures nothing more than a rant, something that sounds good in theory but could never be put into practice?  Not so, says the community of Willits in Northern California, where community organization has led to the emergence of greater local autonomy and energy independence. [...]]]></description>

In a recent article in Grist Magazine, David Roberts observes that the peak oil argument so often cited by environmentalists probably won't convince the world's majority to move towards renewables.&#160; Roberts suggests that &#34;A much more natural, predictable reaction would be to push like mad for more drilling and for more coal gasification.&#34;&#160; &#160;However, there [...]]]></description>
