false <![CDATA[O Fim do Petróleo]]> http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1244800716m/6542807.jpg 83633 8 <div>James Howard Kunstler's The Long Emergency was an underground hit, going into nine printings of the hardcover edition. His shocking vision for our post-oil future caught the attention of environmentalists and business leaders and was the subject of much debate, stimulating discussion about our dependence on fossil fuels. Now in paperback, with a new afterword, The Long Emergency is set to reach an even larger audience. The last two hundred years have seen the greatest explosion of progress and wealth in the history of mankind, much of it based on the exploitation of cheap, nonrenewable fossil-fuel energy. But the oil age is at an end. Life as we know it is about to change radically, and much sooner than we think. The Long Emergency tells us just what to expect after we pass the point of global peak oil production and the honeymoon of affordable energy is over, preparing us for economic, political, and social changes of an unimaginable scale. Riveting and authoritative, The Long Emergency is a devastating indictment that brings new urgency and accessibility to the critical issues that will shape our future, and that we can no longer afford to ignore. </div> 80739 2003 The Long Emergency: Surviving the End of Oil, Climate Change, and Other Converging Catastrophes of the Twenty-First Century total:587|5:147|4:231|3:162|2:37|1:10| 587 2229 1000 176 83633 0802142494 9780802142498 556 172 The Long Emergency: Surviving the End of Oil, Climate Change, and Other Converging Catastrophes of the Twenty-First Century 3.80 http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1171046547m/83633.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/83633.The_Long_Emergency_Surviving_the_End_of_Oil_Climate_Change_and_Other_Converging_Catastrophes_of_the_Twenty_First_Century 4 5 false Sat Sep 01 00:00:00 -0700 2007 Sun Sep 23 10:12:58 -0700 2007 Sun Sep 23 10:16:12 -0700 2007 more...]]> 83633 0802142494 9780802142498 556 172 The Long Emergency: Surviving the End of Oil, Climate Change, and Other Converging Catastrophes of the Twenty-First Century 3.80 http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1171046547m/83633.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/83633.The_Long_Emergency_Surviving_the_End_of_Oil_Climate_Change_and_Other_Converging_Catastrophes_of_the_Twenty_First_Century 3 2 false Fri Apr 01 00:00:00 -0800 2005 Fri Nov 02 11:30:49 -0700 2007 Thu Mar 06 23:22:43 -0800 2008 more...]]> 83633 0802142494 9780802142498 556 172 The Long Emergency: Surviving the End of Oil, Climate Change, and Other Converging Catastrophes of the Twenty-First Century 3.80 http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1171046547m/83633.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/83633.The_Long_Emergency_Surviving_the_End_of_Oil_Climate_Change_and_Other_Converging_Catastrophes_of_the_Twenty_First_Century 2 2 false Sun May 11 00:00:00 -0700 2008 Sat Nov 03 06:37:11 -0700 2007 Sun May 11 07:32:40 -0700 2008 more...]]> 83633 0802142494 9780802142498 556 172 The Long Emergency: Surviving the End of Oil, Climate Change, and Other Converging Catastrophes of the Twenty-First Century 3.80 http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1171046547m/83633.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/83633.The_Long_Emergency_Surviving_the_End_of_Oil_Climate_Change_and_Other_Converging_Catastrophes_of_the_Twenty_First_Century 2 1 false Wed Jul 30 10:02:48 -0700 2008 Wed Jul 30 10:14:25 -0700 2008 more...]]> 83633 0802142494 9780802142498 556 172 The Long Emergency: Surviving the End of Oil, Climate Change, and Other Converging Catastrophes of the Twenty-First Century 3.80 http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1171046547m/83633.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/83633.The_Long_Emergency_Surviving_the_End_of_Oil_Climate_Change_and_Other_Converging_Catastrophes_of_the_Twenty_First_Century 4 1 false Fri Aug 01 00:00:00 -0700 2008 Mon Jul 14 15:04:03 -0700 2008 Fri Aug 01 13:56:46 -0700 2008
