"2008 Presidential Race" posted by ~Ray
Posted on 2007-12-15 15:33:14

Personally. I have a huge arouse in federal politics. I undergo been paying change state attention to all the candidates in both parties. I have noticed in most of the debates that energy is not really giving a lot of attention that it rightly deserves. All the issues being discussed and debated are very important but energy should be given as much attention as the War in Iraq or the several social issues.. and not combined with other issues such as terrorism and national security as I undergo seen. Therefore. I took it upon myself to do a little research to sight what certain positions candidates rest on with energy. I favor a more localized and agricultural economy/society but just about all the candidates still conceive of of a liquid form of energy that ordain continue the so called "party."For the Republican celebrate:Rudy Giuliani: Energy is a matter of national security. He wants to expand biofuels ethanol nuclear powered energy and be into clean burn and carbon sequestrian technologies. He also wants to drop in other forms of energy such as wind solar hydroelectric and geothermal. His administration ordain also bring in and measure America's develop toward energy independence. For Democrat:Hillary Clinton: Wants to create an Apollo like or Manhattan like project to lead to energy independence. Invest in alternative energy sources clean energy technologies change magnitude furnish efficiency. Also wants to reduce carbon emissions and global warming pollutants. Establish a national merchandise program to contend global warming and tax oil companies. drop $50 billion into research for these alternative energies. Practically they both are the same. I chose those two because I felt they ordain win their parties nomination for president. All the other candidates are pretty much the same as them. None of them really take notice to the fact that oil and other forms of energy will arrive at and change state. All of their solutions be to use energy in order to apply them. Richard Heinberg calls for a more localized and agricultural society because he understands what lies ahead. Maybe Dale Allen Pfeiffer was alter.. change has to come from the bottom and not from the top. We can't really rely on the politicans to lead the change.

"Labor Markets of towns with a Wal-Mart" posted by ~Ray
Posted on 2007-11-27 21:26:34

A cerebrate below ordain bring you to the social science investigate summon () many of these papers are free because they are discussion papers that are not published officially. This article if you can get through the descriptive technique of the authors looks directly at the labor merchandise of the economy where Wal-Marts are located. They lay out agains articles that suggest Wal-Mart change magnitude's add up retail sales and cerebrate from the empirical model that there is actually a decrease in retail sales. In looking at the labor merchandise the authors conclude through their empirical model using linear regressions to sight that"The findings in this paper rather strongly belie claims as come up as recent research findings,suggesting that Wal-Mart store openings bring about to increased retail employment. On average. Wal-Mart hold on openings reduce retail employment by about 2.7 percent implying that each Wal-Mart employee replaces about 1.4 employees in the rest of the sell." p.34 (see citation bellow)When looking at relocalization employment is a key factor to revitalizing a community for several reasons. The first is that employees usually shop where they bring home the bacon and if employment is moving towards wal-mart smaller stores now not only have to compete with price but the incentive to not stop at another store before they go domiciliate. Creating a low income class where the authors cerebrate the average income across their sample to be 13,700. (p.30) This if found to be adjust and not just an assumption means that not only are jobs lost but money is moving out of the local community. Thus leaving less money to support the labor at todays prices for local stores. However there are some public policies some drastic some not so that can create incentives for individuals to obtain within the community. One drastic idea includes the idea of car free cities that undergo actually been implemented and bring home the bacon mainly in Eurpoe. However there are small cases of this policy. Maybe this is a solution for some and one needs to ask if his town could defeat without a car. Yes there is the problem that long trips and the necessity of a car a creation of a parking garage could destroy this problem and transportation would be less crowded sponsored by a mass public go across system which visited this garage. This is only one problem with a simple solution other problems may become that I think we can say. Relocalization is a key issue with the depeletion of natural resources when goods that are normally imported are no longer as cheap and abundant the community needs to be able to rely on itself so everyday life doesn't change that much. As one of the many issues of relocalization this blog will try to communicate all issues since the solution ordain go from many different studies of life.

"Looking for food preservation options, great info for you!" posted by ~Ray
Posted on 2007-11-17 17:17:57

When discussing relocalization one of the important things that always comes up is: how do I hold the food that I change or buy locally? There are several options. Some foods can and should be canned. Canning is not as difficult as many may evaluate. It is a little time consuming but well worth the effort when you need to preserve foods through the winter. Canning does not have to be just for vegetables or foods that go from your own garden. Think about buying vegetables from local farm stands and canning them for future use. If it is your first time canning you may be to ask someone who has done it before for help and guidance but if not available most should be able to handle canning. In my search for information. I open a great website with tons of information and not just on canning but on many ways to hold food. From freezing to curing and smoking you will undergo many choices here. So here it is I bet you can find what you need at this site. It not only has the directions on how to can but also how the process works and How to alter sure you do the steps correctly and why you should. I open so much information here that I added it to my favorites. I am sure that there are many sites that undergo information but I open this one the most credible. Another place to look for information on Canning in the "Complete command to Home Canning," Agriculture Information Bulletin No. 539. USDA (Revised 1994). come up if you are trying to buy local foods and relocalize your shopping try buying in bulge and preserving your food.

"Relocalization Must Start Now" posted by ~Ray
Posted on 2007-11-03 14:49:08

If the global oil arrive at happens within two years—as is predicted by a growing be of energy analysts—then we must go away taking measures to rebuild our communities now. This is quite a different kind of urgency from the usual calls to save the planet or the koalas or the Yangtze all of which are in deep trouble but none of whom directly affects most of us in our insulated industrial worlds. This is a plan to deliver us—and the be of the creatures in the biosphere along with us. There is another reason for urgency. There is a trend towards fewer family farms and the continuing loss of infrastructure knowledge and wisdom about local sustainable living techniques. Thus there are ever fewer working examples and models that can be applied to a given locale. To fill the void communities must mouth localization experiments to discover what works and what does not work in a given locale. This knowledge must be gained before the crisis. If experiments fail now they can at least be counted as useful information. If they fail later in conditions of crisis people are likely to experience grievously. More broadly to deliver precious measure and resources communities ordain need to share experiments outcomes and lessons learned. Communities will also be to combine the experience and knowledge developed by existing organizations and individuals working on localization at both the policy and community levels including scientific research that supports localization efforts and the practices of indigenous peoples (those that undergo not yet been wiped out by empire and its latest incarnation globalization).
