3. Peak Oil Oil discoveries will not allow higher average extraction. Skewed toward later times.

5. Fossil-Fuels CO 2 emissions and CO 2 concentration contribution.

6. Temperature including permafrosted tundra release of carbon. Disaster Region! 1.8 degrees C

7. World Population Projections Fit of population to available fossil-fuels energy 1950-2006. Population without renewable energy Population with renewable energy

8.  Industrial agriculture: Modern farming methods that depend on synthetic fertilizers and pesticides, large amounts of irrigation water, major transportation systems, factory-style practices for raising livestock, and machine technology.  The farm is considered as a factory, with "inputs" (such as pesticides, feed, fertilizer, and fuel) and "outputs" (corn, chickens, and so forth). The goal is to increase yield (such as bushels per acre) and decrease costs of production, usually by exploiting economies of scale.  External environmental costs and long term sustainability ignored. (carbon pollution, soil degradation, water pollution, toxic chemicals in the food and the environment, rising cost of production, susceptibility to ecological and infrastructural collapse, co-option by corporate profit motives. 

9. Non-Fossil-Fuels CO 2 Emissions Sources: Deforestation Soil depletion Cement production Domestic animals for food

10. Macronutrients in agriculture: N – P – K In addiction to modern society’s oil addiction, industrial agriculture is addicted to synthetic nitrogen and mined phosphate fertilizers.  Nitrogen pollution from agriculture is devastating fisheries, rivers, groundwater, and human drinking water resources.  Mined rock phosphate supplies for use as fertilizer is expected to peak around 2030 – when we need to be doubling our food-growing capacity to feed the rising global population, rock phosphate will become increasingly scarce and expensive.  Need to recover/recycle nitrogen and phosphate from organic wastes from farms, household compost, livestock and human manure and municipal waste.

12. Builing compost piles - recycles nutrients. Builing compost piles - recycles nutrients. Organic farnming is more Labor intensive, less external input-intensive

13. California Certified Organic Farmers: Largest association of organic farmers, crops, and farmland in US (& worldwide?) since early 1980s. Since 1986, responsible for developing model certification standards, inspection standards, labeling and processor standards; design and passage of landmark 1990 California Organic Foods Act, followed by Federal National Organic Standards (final rules issued 10 years later).
