In this week's Off the Cuff podcast, Chris and Charles discuss:

  • Preparing To Ride Camels
    • What less net energy looks like for future generations
  • Energetic Insanity
    • We're going to make more bad choices before we make good ones
  • Communicating Hard Truths
    • What works and what doesn't
  • Community As The Master Asset
    • Your best bet if you could only pick one

"My grandfather rode a camel, my father rode a camel, I drive a Mercedes, my son drives a Land Rover, his son will drive a Land Rover, but his son will ride a camel."

~ Rashid bin Saeed Al Maktoum

The above quote comes from a former Prime Minister of the United Arab Emirates who was also the Emir of Dubai and is credited with making that that small settlement into a regional commerce hub. Sheikh Rashid realized even back in the 1970's, that the region's massive oil supplies would last only a few generations.

In this week's Off the Cuff, Chris and Charles discuss the implications of Chris' latest report on Peak Cheap Oil, and what the future for society looks like farther down the energy cliff. In true Peak Prosperity form, the discussion concludes that options become much more limited for those (both individuals and countries) who don't invest in resilence today.
