The UK Industry Taskforce on Peak Oil and Energy Security (ITPOES) is a group of British companies concerned that threats to energy security are not receiving the attention they merit.
The Industry Taskforce on Peak Oil and Energy Security
The aim of our first report is to engage government more proactively on the peak oil threat, and also to alert the public to the problem. We aim to encourage collaborative contingency planning by government, industry, and communities on measures that can be taken to accelerate independent energy supply within the UK.
In preparing this report, we asked ourselves three related questions: How big is the risk from peak oil? How big is the alternative-energy opportunity? How do the two conflate?
"Welcome to the Adaptation Sub-Committee
The Adaptation Sub-Committee (ASC) is a sub-committee of the Committee on Climate Change (CCC), established under the Climate Change Act 2008. The ASC will provide expert advice and scrutiny through the CCC to ensure that the Government's programme for adaptation enables the UK to prepare effectively for the impacts of climate change."
Transition Scilly is a local, community-driven group that aims to help people on Scilly reduce their carbon footprint as a response to the threat of Climate Change, and increase the whole community's resilience as a response to the threat of Peak Oil..
The Transition movement started in Totnes in 2006 and has grown to hundreds of places (villages, towns and cities) across the UK and around the World. It is a movement based on positive change, not traditional campaigning. Transition is based on solutions to problems as a way of looking to a positive future.
Peak Oil and Climate Change are both huge threats to human society, in very different ways. Peak Oil forces us to alter our lifestyle of heavy reliance on fossil fuels, and Climate Change is altering the environmental conditions of the entire planet.
If both issues are considered separately we won't come up with positive solutions for both problems; if considered together there's a chance we can turn this situation around. This is the difference with Transition.
Marsden & Slaithwaite Transition Towns (MASTT) is a community-led initiative which is taking proactive steps to deal with the twin threats of Peak Oil and Climate Change.
The reasoning behind MASTT is simply that a community using much less energy and resources than we presently consume could more resilient. Providing it has been properly planned for and designed to be more resilient, more abundant and more pleasurable than the present.
Rather than feeling guilty about Climate Change and worrying about the end of cheap oil, let's do something now to make our communities strong, prosperous and great places to live over the coming turbulent years!
MASTT strives to be inclusive, imaginative, practical and fun. Want to get involved? Why not join a MASTT project or start a new one? It's fun and easy, you don't have to be an expert, you will meet lots of interesting people, strengthen your community, and learn new skills. What could be better? to get in contact please email: info@mastt.org.uk
Who are we?
...a group working towards a sustainable low-carbon lifestyle, based in West Kirby and elsewhere on the Wirral.
We are one of dozens of Transition Town groups that have formed over the last two years throughout the UK and around the world.
The global challenges of climate change and energy shortages are approaching - we feel that we may not be able to do much at a global level, but can do a lot at the level of the local community. We feel it is better to plan a local response in advance than wait until the problems become a crisis. And we feel that there will be many advantages of a low-carbon lifestyle.
Membership is open to all at no charge.
All Party Parliamentary Group on Peak Oil
A range of oil analysts are expecting global oil production to peak and then begin its decline within the next 10 years.
The All Party Parliamentary Group on Peak Oil seeks to discuss and investigate the debate regarding the date of global peak oil production, and also look at the range of impacts, mitigations and solutions."
Low Carbon Exeter is a dynamic civil action initiative. Our main aim is to respond to the challenges of climate change and resource depletion in a way that is conscious of the global scale, but makes practical and insightful changes on a local level. For more about us go to The Vision section.
