Are there other cities with similar solution-generation processes that might be willing to contribute to the Peak Oil WhyNot? PCL lists Fernie, Vancouver, Calgary, Saint John, Ottawa, Toronto, Burlington and Oakville as cities with concerned citizen's groups:

It might be worth seeing whether there are some solutions from city-based reports from around the world, from a variety of processes, which might be adapted. Does anyone know of a list of cities that have produced reports or lists of solutions?

Are there other other solution banks that we might be able to point to or incorporate?
