Stoneleigh lecture (aka Nicole Foss of The Automatic Earth blog): A Century of Challenges

Nicole Foss spoke at last year's annual Transition Gathering in England and impressed the heck out of everyone with her very powerful talk.

A Century of Challenges is a comprehensive analysis of energy, finance and the interaction between the two from a big picture perspective.

We are looking at a series of interlocking crises of which energy and finance have the shortest timeframe, which is why we concentrate on them.

Nicole Foss offers a roadmap for what is coming and why, and also what people can do individually and together in the face of this most significant of predicaments.



She is an international energy and finance expert, and the co-editor of TheAutomatic Earth blog. Formerly, she was a Research Fellow at the Oxford Institute for Energy Studies who specialized in nuclear safety in Eastern Europe and the former Soviet Union and conducted research into electricity policy at the EU level.
