I don't know about his assertion that suburban sprawl will revert to farm land. That would be quite the undertaking. I've had a garden in my front yard since 2008. I've learned a lot over four years about how to grow vegetables. I would hope that we could take the common areas in these sprawling suburban neighborhoods and convert much of it into community run gardens, chicken coops and pig farms. That would make much more sense to me. Also, >What is peak oil going to do to population carrying capacity? >I've heard mass food production is very dependent on synthetic fertilizers made from natural gas. How long before peak natural gas affects food production capacity? >How big of a mess will the grid become when we have a bunch of electric cars on the roads? >Without a substitute for oil-powered automobiles, just how much higher will the unemployment rate go, and how much civil unrest will that cause?
