Unlike communications policy, energy and transportation policies restrict Churn.

Innovations, like Morgantown, have not iterated into commercialization.

Intent: Assure mission effectiveness despite decreasing oil supply and price shocks.

Objective: Reduce petroleum usage by 30% by 2015, Presidential Order 13423

Background: Principles of War, Political Instability, Peak Oil, Global Warming

Policy: Churn, a Nimble Economy

Logistics: Re-tool for the desired result of on-demand sustainable mobility.

Implementation: Last Oil Crisis, Parasitic Mass, System Design, JPods

Supporting Details: List of additional background studies

• Presidential Executive Order 13423; all federal agencies reduce petroleum usages by 30% by 2015.
• Stern Review, British Treasure; immediately invest 1% of World GDP to curb GHG or face hardships the "scale of the Great Depression and World Wars"
• Western Governor call for immediate and major reductions in GHG's.
• UN and IPCC estimates a deadline for Global Warming accomplishment at 2015.

Oil supplies will be in relentless decline before we can re-tool to be independent of oil. There will be insufficient oil to manage all priorities of defense, farming and transportation. Aggressive action can mitigate the worst of the consequences. Vulnerabilities are severe across multiple Principles of War

• Simplicity (Oil needs, 60% out of our control is a house of cards).
• Security (Oil sources are unprotected and even hostile).
• Logistics (Assuming 100% availability of oil for transport needs is unrealistic when looking at risks).

If the oil supply were a vendor they would be fired for unacceptable risky nature.

Production is stalled indicating Peak Oil. All liquid fuels (left), oil (right).

Accelerating demand and speculation will destabilize 90% of existing transport.

By major estimates (EIA, IEA, OPEC, BP, EXXON, ASPO, etc....) Peak Oil has or will occur before re-tooling.

Downward curves equate to the 1973 Oil Embargo compounded yearly.

Four Corners provides a clear documentary on Peak Oil.

Continued use of oil wil create hardships on the scale of "the Great Depression and World Wars, Sterns Review and IPCC.

The Arctic is a leading indicator.

"If present trends continue, the world will need to invest $16 trillion over the next three decades to maintain and expand energy supply," (equivalent to one percent of total global GDP over the period)

"Without new policy actions, world energy demand will rise by two-thirds between now and 2030, and the world economy will falter if these energy supplies are not made available,"

Executive Director Claude Mandil, head of the Paris-based International Energy Agency told a USCIB audience in New York on November 13.

What is important here is not that the automobile could have been developed differently, but that in choosing to design, develop and deploy the automobile as a stand alone technology, a host of complementary transportation solutions to replace the horse and buggy were not considered.

In the pain of the 1973 Oil Embargo we identified a solution.

Yet, we only built Morgantown.

Problem: In reptitive travel we consume energy moving a ton to move a person.

Solution: Strive towards moving only the person.

Automate highly repetiitive travel with solar powered transportation.

Rapidly deployed temporary logistical and medical networks.
