James Kunstler visits Seattle.

Last Tuesday I had the incredible opportunity and honor to meet the great James Howard Kunstler in flesh and bones, right here in Seattle. James Kunstler came all the way from New York and was at the U. W. Bookstore signing copies of his latest book World Made By Hand.

For those who do not know James Kunstler, he is the author of the book The Long Emergency; a term which he coined. James Kunstler is also a speaker and outspoken leader. He first came into my world when I was checking out the TED site. One night I watched his video based on what he had to say about suburbia and American architecture, and I was very impressed with his talk. You can watch this video by going here.

James Kunstler also has written numerous essays that can be found on energybulletin.net. If his writing and content interest you, I invite you to check out what is there.

A few years ago I watched the documentary The End of Suburbia, not knowing that James Kunstler was in it! Well, he is and The End of Suburbia is a great documentary that is totally worth watching. James Kunstler also has a blog, which you can read here.

I asked James Kunstler if he had a message for Brazil when he signed my book, and he did! He wrote something that you can see here. Well, I’ll carry on that message. For the Brazilians that read this, the message in Portuguese is “Favor dizer ao Brasil para parar de destruir a floresta amazonica".

The Seattle Peak Oil Awareness group is grateful to James Kunstler for his magnificent work to save and protect our environment, and his efforts to reverse humans destructive actions towards the planet in an attempt that future generations perhaps are born into a world that is... habitable.

Ricardo Parker and the great James Kunstler
