The end is nigh. Simply pondering on it at the moment, but I wonder if the implosion of Europe and beyond is actually going to be a good thing? Will the peaking of oil actually create a positive out of a perceived disaster?
If countries suddenly find they are unable to trade on the massive scale they are, will they start to focus locally and begin to energise local industry again? If oil is so expensive that importing of goods and services becomes impossible, will communities create those goods and services instead?
I am ignorant to global economics and naive about international trading, but I am curious as to whether the world needs to collapse in order for society to build again with community as the focus and not greed and individualism...
