-The Association for Peak Oil and Gas is having their annual conference, this year entitled Truth In Energy November 3-4, but conference activities go from November 2-5.
-Across the North Hempisphere things are getting a little colder, if you still have the gardening bug here are 10 great winter vegetables to try.
-The green economy gets a great board game. The goal? Compete to hit the triple bottom line for Hawai'i. Why Hawai'i...everyone loves Hawai'i!!!
-Utne magazine details something I have talked about recently, mainly this new trend of “agricultural urbanism,” “new ruralism,”, "suburbian agriculture", the movement of many names has several cities embracing it.
