Bacteria that eat waste and poop petroleum « the good city

"The best byproduct of high fuel prices has been the opportunity to discuss issues like New Urbanism, sprawl and our nation's exclusively automotive transportation network. But what if oil supplies suddenly blossom? If peak oil is a myth, or if it can be averted, will our hopes for renewed cities be in vain? I hope not. Although it seems some New Urbanists are almost happy that oil prices have gone through the roof, we should not place all of our bets on that happening. Our arguments in favor of true, good cities should be able to exist even with dollar-a-gallon gas."
