Energy thinker and solar developer JOHN G. HOWE spoke on THE END OF FOSSIL ENERGY (56 min; 12 MB; 32 kbps/24 kHz mp3) at the Good Life Center in Harborside, Maine on June 26, 2006 as part of the Center’s Monday night summer series.
This is a serious program on our very critical energy situation. Even so, it is not without moments of levity. The fossil fuel situation is grim while most in America seem aloof and deluded. John pulls no punches on various alternative fuel schemes.
John meets the energy challenge head on with facts, figures, and rays of hope. He describes a potenially sunny solar future if we can get together on a plan to greatly lower overall energy consumption. It is our last chance for our advanced civilization to survive. But people better start waking up if we are to deal effectively with the colossal energy crisis that surely is just around the corner.
This audience at the former homestead of the late Helen & Scott Nearing surely is awake. The questions are intelligent and that keeps the discussion engaging throughout the program.

“We are poised right here at this tipping point. We are sailing off into uncharted territory. What will happen, who knows? We can hope for the best. We can’t give up… I wish you all the best. Spread the word!'’
