I have in the past had nothing nice to say about James Howard Kunstler’s smug attitude toward the impending collapse of suburban living due to peak oil and climate change…but his arguments seem more valid as our real estate values fall and oil prices rise. America’s exurbs and suburbs are in a world of hurt.

Grist has done an interesting interview with Kunstler that is well worth the read:

And now, if you’ll excuse me, I’m going to go drown my $4 a gallon gas sorrows in some fresh baked brownies.
