A Crude Awakening

A Crude Awakening is a 1 hour 22 min documentary all about oil: its uses, our dependence, the implications of peak oil, and the consequences of a petro system. It is very high-quality and well done, with a nice soundtrack of Philip Glass. It is relatively bias-free, as in it doesn't demonize any one group; I found it more informative and education-orientation than persuasive and action-oriented. It is a great, easy-to-watch, powerful documentary that I highly recommend.

Agenda: explore our socio-economic integration with petroleum, explore the topic of peak oil and its possible consequences on the world, review current alternatives to oil.
