The interesting work of the American Post Carbon Institute is being translated at the urban level. This is being realised in the Post Carbon Cities Initiative.

Central to this approach is the publishing of the Post Carbon Cities guidebook. Post Carbon Cities: Planning for Energy and Climate Uncertainty is a guidebook on peak oil and global warming for people who work with and for local governments in the United States and Canada. It provides a sober look at how these phenomena are quickly creating new uncertainties and vulnerabilities for cities of all sizes, and explains what local decision-makers can do to address these challenges.
