IMPURITEASE IN THE AIR
AT THE TASSEL CLUB

Pollution is not just something that happens to "the environment." It affects the water we drink, the air we breathe, and the land we grow our food on. When it comes to us water-drinking, air-breathing, food-eating humans, see Grinning Planet's feature article to find out about the relationship between pollution and health.

QUOTH THE MAVEN

Lester Brown:  "In Mexico City, Tehran, Kolkata, Bangkok, Shanghai, and hundreds of other cities, the air is no longer safe to breathe. In some cities, the air is so polluted that breathing is equivalent to smoking two packs of cigarettes per day."

THE YELLOW PERIL

Deluged with dandelions but not liking the idea of spraying your lawn with 2,4-D pesticides in areas where kids and pets play? Check out our article on non-toxic dandelion removal methods, including the recently added reader suggestion, The Dandelion Stomp.

OIL-O-NOMICS

In her essay "The Expected Economic Impact of an Energy Downturn," Oil Drum wonk Gail the Actuary gives an excellent explanation of how the rocky path ahead of us is caused by the intersection between the global financial crisis and the emerging constriction in energy and commodity supplies.

VITTLES VOID

We hope you took heed of our Jan-Feb-Mar series on the coming food crisis. The subject is now front-page news, but it's not too late for you to take action. This is not a drill!. Related GP stuff:  Books for Surviving Peak Oil

RECOMMENDED BOOK
 
image for World Made By Hand, by James Howard Kunstler, 2/11/2008
WORLD MADE BY HAND
James Howard Kunstler's novel World Made By Hand places us a couple of decades into the future, when today's globalized high-energy techno-industrialism is gone, replaced by a hyper-local, low-energy, low-tech existence—an uninvited, unwanted change borne of natural limits, pandemic losses of life, and the general ineptitude of today's leaders. Weather or not you're a Peak Oiler, World Made By Hand is a good book to try—it shows just how much things would change in a world without global supply chains keeping stores stocked using just-it-time delivery systems.

FOR A THOUSAND MOTHERS
"For A Thousand Mothers" is just one of ten top-notch songs from Jethro Tull's 1969 breakout album Stand Up, where Ian Anderson and the boys mastered the earthy progressive-rock sound they had experimented with on their first album. The 2001 reissue includes 4 bonus tracks. Hear MP3 clips or check out CD on amazon.com.
