Welcome to Washington County Peak Oil!


Our Mission:


As a group of concerned local citizens with diverse backgrounds and interests, motivated by an awareness of the looming crisis caused by the peaking of world petroleum supplies and by a hopeful vision of future possibilities, we have come together to:
• Create awareness in Washington County about the peak oil crisis and it's economic, environmental and social implications.
• Serve as a community network to identify and share individual and collective strategies to effectively cope with the peak oil crisis.
• Influence policies of local governments for constructive and sustainable solutions.

We meet twice monthly

Please join us. (see our listing of Events for meeting specifics):
- Our Public Meetings are held on the 2nd Tuesday of every month.
- Our Book Club meets on the 4th Tuesday of every month.
Meetings are open to the public and we warmly welcome you, and encourage you to subscribe to this site. By subscribing you may select whether or not to automatically receive e-mail notifications of events, meetings, and news.

Take a look at our menu across the top -- there's quite a bit to see and do here. Explore!
