This sounds like a great meeting and discussion.

 

 

 

 

Derek Maurer invites anyone interested in peak oil to join him for a discussion of the topic Thursday, June 5, at 7 p.m. in Meeting Room E of the Iowa City Public Library. This will be an opportunity to learn more or share what you know about peak oil.

Many Iowans are becoming more informed about the peak oil phenomenon, with its implication that the era of abundant and relatively cheap energy is drawing to a close. Yet while everyone from corporate oil behemoths to politicians of all stripes talks about developing alternative fuels and 'going green,' the prospect of an energy-scarce future is real and troubling. What can we do as a community to respond to the likelihood of this drastic change in the basis of our economy and society?

Please join Derek next Thursday evening for a lively and thought-provoking conversation about the possibilities. Meeting Room E is located on the second floor of the library along the building's interior wall.
