The Future of East Hawaii

[Tahunatics]

I'm surprised none of you called him a Punatic. You can laugh all you want and make fun of radioguy, but my wife and I would like to back him up, he is right. I don't know about equal rights for dolphins, but I can tell you I have studied this topic thoroughly for many, many years, even getting a Bachelor of Science in Alternative Energy in 1984. This information won't just fall in your lap watching Faux News, although it is becoming more mainstream recently. The subject that will create this paradigm is called 'Peak Oil' and most people are unaware of it and don't even want to hear about it. The good news is Puna is probably one of the best places on Earth to survive it with abundant rainfall, warm temps and ability to grow food and aquaculture year round. The unknown variable is climate change. It's informing people and rebuilding community networks made extinct by the Walmarts and globalism that will be difficult because people don't even want to hear about it. They do however want to know everything about American Idol or Survivor or the other lame reality shows. You want to talk about reality? This thread could become very, very important. Perhaps something VERY positive could come out of this conversation for the Puna community. Peak Oil isn't something 20-30 years from now. Our own military says it actually happened last year and is now the largest consumer of renewable energy products in the world. Many experts agree we are either at Peak Oil Production now or within the next two years.
All oil production equals a bell curve with Peak Oil being at the top of that curve. Guess what comes after that? Instead of an 'Apollo' type program to wean us off of oil we are going to go to war to fight for every last drop. Think about this; it takes ten calories of oil to put one calorie of food on America's table. I cannot write 20 pages of information here, but let's start with some basic info. Keep in mind radioguy has very good intentions in bringing this information forward and so do we. This is for real and it's about to affect your life and ours.
