21 Nov 06 The Rocky Mountains Institute offers a downloadable book called Oil End Game, which far from envisaging the end of civilization, actually imagines real strategies for transport and industry without oil.http://www.oilendgame.com

Also from the Rocky Mountain Institute the Community Energy Opportunity Finder http://www.energyfinder.org/ helps you collect information on your community's energy use, and then demonstrates the potential energy savings; dollar savings; reductions in carbon dioxide, nitrogen oxides, and sulfur dioxide emissions; and job creation from energy efficiency programs. The Finder also gives you an overview of the kinds of renewable energy sources that could power your community.
