– When money represents energy the various currencies will sort themselves out (or the reverse will happen as with the euro) and the winner will fall out of circulation (hoarded). The other currencies will simply vanish or will buy goods OTHER THAN fuel. Energy availability will plummet, to meet the small amount of ‘good currency’ in circulation available at any given time for fuel purchase.

From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank those kind readers who sent checks to defray the expenses of traveling to West Virginia for the RAMPS action. THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU. Your sponsorship means so much to me and honestly, it gives me courage to know I have the support of friends, and even two people I have never met. It turns out the campground is next to a huge forested park with a lovely river running through it, so I am really excited to hike through the woods there. If nothing else, this will be an adventure.

RAMPS
RAMPS RAMPS stands for Radical Action for Mountain People's Survival. This organization fights the horrible practice of mountaintop removal to extract coal. If you've never seen pictures or videos of this monstrous travesty, you can't imagine how obscenely destructive it is.
RAMPS is planning a week-long training this summer which will culminate in a physical intervention to halt mining. Even though their name says Mountain People's Survival, actually, it is critical to stop coal for all of us to survive. The direct damage from mining is destroying the forests and causing cancer epidemics locally in Appalachia - while the emissions from coal burning plants are killing trees and making people sick quite literally everywhere. The group is closely aligned with Earth First, anti-fracking, and other environmental groups committed to direct action.
