Hey Bubb.

Howza bout a links section somewhere? Links to other boards, info sources, PO sources, etc...

and a sub-forum on conservation strategies and companies would be good also.

Very Good idea.
We will add one such a section eventually. Please post suggested links on this thread

Some to start with, will add/subtract as necessary ...

Hi, my first post on my first thread - I may have the focus misplaced.

Anyway, I like this page on wiki: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Green_economics

EXCELLENT WORK, spline.
I will later set up a separate area, with a LINK below the Header

Many more coming...
Need to test these:

My favourite site for collating news about anything oily,

http://p100.ezboard.com/bpeakoilpetroleumandpreciousmetals

also has info about precious metals and geopolitics (one big soup).

An excellent idea.

In addition I would also suggest this is split into a straight links section and also a pinned post which outlines exactly what peak oil is and includes references. Whilst I don't think this site will see the same volume of users as HPC (for a while anyway ), I think this would go someway to reducing the amount of re-hashing the same argument posts (i.e. all you folks are yoghurt weaving eco-idiots, there is loads of oil left etc.) which are bound to crop up and get slightly tiresome.

I would recommend these for inclusion (I will edit and add more when I get the chance) on Ghawar and Cantarell, which should be fairly helpful when explaining the volume of new reserves required to replace declining production (very interesting reads, especially the Ghawar article, if you haven't seen them before)

Ghawar Production Decline

Cantarell Production Decline

there's a good peak oil resource/forum over at :-

In simple terms biomass fuels are typically wood products from a sustainable source that are burnt to produce heat for space heating, water heating and cooking. Biomass is considered carbon neutral because the carbon emitted by burning is balanced by carbon absorbed when growing.

Very kind ! Thanks, Consa

Hi,

Just had a look through this thread... seeing as most of the posts are quite old, early ones tend to concentrate on the "green energy" theme which I guess is what this forum centred around back then.

A few links to sites for Goldbugs in there as well.

However, my other area of interest for investment at the moment is Agriculture.

Does anyone know of any good sites for research and daily news in this area?

I've got some favourite precious metals and general resource websites, but nothing really with lots of information in Agriculture... just tends to get sub-sectioned off in sites that concentrate more on gold/oil/base metals etc.

Would love some equivalents like the Goldbugs sites, with research, analysis, predictions etc... but I guess there aren't as many Wheatbugs or Cornbugs out there.... lol

But from what I can see, I do get the impression that several commentators are suggesting that this is a good area to be in over the next few years... so maybe it's just a bit too early...

links galore, here: http://www.greenenergyinvestors.com/index.php?showtopic=2792
