Permaculture makes a lot of sense. Why plant flowering trees in your yard that don't make fruit? Why spend so much of your resources on grass? The vast majority of the rest of the world doesn't live like the U.S. In Eastern Europe, people grow grapes in arbors over the porch, and keep fruit trees and vegetable gardens instead of grass. Those in cities often have a small 'dacha' or 'villa' outside the city. The farmers still use animal and hand labor for many crops. Beyond the obviously better mass transportation, I think they will be much better prepared for very expensive oil & oil-dependent products.
