Post Carbon Institute is an educational institution and think tank that explores in theory and practice what cultures, civilisation, governance & economies might look like without the use of (non-renewable) hydrocarbons as energy and chemical feedstocks. We have operations in Vancouver Canada and Northern California, and are working with community groups (Outposts) in North America. We have already organised more than a dozen oil (and gas) peak events throughout North America and Europe, and have several ongoing local initiatives. We will soon offer education courses and additional pilot projects. |
