67: The Shift




C-Realm Podcast show

Summary: In this installment of the C-Realm Podcast, KMO speaks with Nate Hagens of theOilDrum.com about the various fantasies for replacing fossil fuels with bio-fuels, synthetic fuels, or anything else that will supposedly take up the slack when global oil production peaks and keep our first world of happy motorists shuttling great distances everyday in their shiny metal boxes. Later KMO speaks with Yasmeen Grant about the new CBC radio documentary, "In Search of the Divine Vegetal," and finally we hear from fellow podcaster, Lorenzo, about how sudden disruptions to business as usual can effect an instantaneous change in consciousness that evaporates the ethnic, economic, and ideological barriers that divide our communities. One might be tempted to think of the CBC as Canada's version of NPR, but unlike NPR, they don't seem to keep an archive of their shows on-line for folks to stream or download. They only seem to sell their old programs on CD.
