WE NEED TO COME TOGETHER TO BUILD STRONG, SUSTAINABLE AND SELF-RELIANT SMALL COMMUNITIES.
WELCOME TO OHIO PEAK OIL ACTION (OPOA)!
We are happy to have you visiting our website. We are a visionary organization working with inspired individuals, communities, and other organizations to help prepare for peak oil and the other challenges of the 21st century by promoting community sustainability, bioregionalism and relocalization.
The problems and challenges of peak oil and global climate change will likely create much difficulty and distress for people in the Ohio area. At OPOA, we see these problems as challenges and opportunities to create the better world that we know is possible.
We are dedicated to help build a more just, sustainable and sacred place for future generations to come, while preparing for peak oil, global climate change and the other converging challenges of the 21st century.
Our Mission
Our mission is to turn crisis into opportunity by spreading information and awareness around the issues of peak oil, climate change, and the other threats that are now facing humanity; to help communities in and around the Ohio area to begin the process of relocalization; to promote the ideas of permaculture, earth ethics, and bioregionalism; and to build a healthier and happier world for future generations in the Ohio area and around the country and world.
PREPARING FOR PEAK!
We hope you will find information and resources about the problems and challenges that we are likely to face in the next five to ten years on our website. More importantly, we hope you will find ideas and information about how to begin to prepare yourself, your family, and your community for the coming times. Please also check our RELOCALIZATION WIKI site to contribute to the growing movement towards relocalization, permaculture, and bioregionalism.
