A Compendium of Useful Information
Version 1.1, July 13, 2011 -- July 2011 Update URLs
The purpose of this webpage is to provide people with the
information they may need to successfully adapt to the looming
threats of
peak energy, climate instability, economic irrationality,
toxic politics, wars and violence. It is not a finished
product, it is a work in progress,
and visitors are invited to help by
suggesting new resources to add to these pages. If you
were to save all of these web pages to your computer,
it would amount
to more than 2 gigabytes of information.
If a url goes dark, please let us know at
bwaldrop@cox.net . If you can
find the new url if it has moved, that would be helpful.
Suggestions
are also welcome for
additions, as there are several sections herein that need considerable
additional resources.
Assigning some of these urls to a specific topic is a bit of a
judgment call, as often a site or article could be classified in one
of several ways.
NB: These free information sources may be on sites with various
political, ideological, religious, cultural, or scientific world
views/agendas.
Placing a link to the free useful information here does
not indicate my support for any such agendas
extraneous to the how-to information.
I am also not in a position to
verify the accuracy or efficacy of any of the information
linked to this page. Readers use this information, or don't use this
information,
at their own risk. As we say in Oklahoma,
"Y'all bon appetit, you hear?"
