Permatopia highlights solutions to Peak Oil, Climate Change and ecocide.

The companion website OilEmpire.US is focused on understanding the politics behind these problems that prevent implementation of the solutions.

Road-Scholar.org examines the rush to massively expand highway systems as the world passes Peak Oil, and offers some tools to thwart these plans.
