“How do community gardens and agriculture adapt to peak oil & climate change?”

Peak oil will present many different challenges in the coming years but will also offer several opportunities for local growers. A need for localised markets will make community gardens a vital part of the city economy but will we be able to cope with our new found demand?

    Oil will never go below $85 again. In 2010 oil will be over $250 a barrel and gas will be $10 a gallon. Even though reserves are rising which should make oil prices drop the fact they don’t drop in price is because the political tensions are rising. With that you will either buy a hybrid which will still be expensive to operate or ride your bike or take the public transit. There are ways to reduce your fuel cost.
