- Why I started this podcast
- feel slightly isolated
- I question my own sanity!
- my friends and family members are sick of hearing from me
- everything that I thought would happen….didn’t
- my historical path to this point
- 2007 CBC show about peak oil - my dad listening across the parking lot
- 2008 fuel shock
- Biofuels, Jack Spirko
- Recession and recovery
- Lost my way
- Oh oh happening again
- endless recession
- Look around - is the world struggling under the burden that we have created?
- Are we at peak everything?
- Consumption - we have a e a society that is consuming more (at least in North America) than the world can keep up with - limits to growth
- Environmental damage - remains to be seen but think about this logically; can we did up carbon, pump it into the air and not have an effect? Tonnes a year a being elevated.
- Fourth Turning - society has reached a point where we have forgotten the challenges of the previous generations. This is a pattern that repeats, time and time again
- Financial shenanigans - they are manipulating numbers, publications, markets
- Why is no one freaking out? - Novel kids
- What can you do?
- Bee Stoic - you cannot change or challenge the people around you, let alone the world. Politics?
- Prepare - do what you can to make sure that you are self sufficient
- Find your areas of strength and work toward independence. Find the assets that you have and build them up. Possibly start a business, plant trees, start a garden, learn a new real skill
- The future - look for more detailed discussions on things that I am doing around the farm and with my life.
