Introduction

This blog is intended as a companion to my regular haunts at Peak Energy and The Oil Drum (ANZ).

Its purpose is to collate my longer posts on clean energy and related subjects, which I intend (and have been for some time) to eventually condense into a single post called "Our Clean Energy Future" which outlines my view of how to solve peak oil, global warming and related problems.

The posts will still appear at PE and TOD ANZ, but the idea is that they won't be drowned out by the clutter of day to day posts at those 2 blogs.
