 <title>Life at the End of Empire</title>
 <link>http://www.adbusters.org/magazine/79/life_at_the_end_of_empire.html</link>
 <description>&lt;!--paging_filter--&gt;&lt;p&gt;
Peak oil, mass extinction, catastrophic climate change. With every passing day, the signs are becoming more and more difficult to deny. But we deny them anyway. We swear we’ll curb emissions. We pledge to actively pursue an alternative energy policy. We don’t believe we have a problem. We can stop anytime we want. Just not&amp;nbsp;today.
&lt;/p&gt;

 <title>The Revolutionaries</title>
 <link>http://www.adbusters.org/magazine/55/economists_leading_change.html</link>
 <description>&lt;!--paging_filter--&gt;&lt;p&gt;
Amidst all the hoopla of ad campaigns, business news and growth projections, a close examination of our consumer culture reveals a very ugly truth: it thrives on the death of nature, and charges the cost to future&amp;nbsp;generations.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
But it doesn’t have to be this way. We still have time to redesign our economic model. All it takes is a critical mass of visionaries to step&amp;nbsp;forward.
&lt;/p&gt;
