Audio interview of "Peak Everything: Waking up to a Century of Declines"

From Wendy: if time is short to get educated on sustainability, try listening to this interview on Worldview

Jerome McDonnell, of Chicago Public Radio, revisits a conversation with Richard Heinberg, an American journalist and educator who has written three books on peak oil and is now a Senior Fellow at the Post Carbon Institute.

McDonnell says that "Heinberg’s not just worried about peak oil…He’s worried about other essentials like water use, coal production, fish harvests and grain production. Those graphs look a lot like the graphs that show oil production declining.

Peak Everything: Waking up to a Century of Declines is Heinberg’s new series of essays contemplating what we might do as demand begins to outstrip supply.
