very good film you can see most of it on youtube for free http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q3uvzcY2Xug

Basically we are coming to the end of cheap oil and gradually oil will become more and more expensive .
much of our life style is based on cheap oil , food production all manufactured goods, transportation, heating all based on cheap energy .

very good film to watch

I enjoyed it:) There've been a few decent documentaries in this style over the last few years - The Corporation ... is one, um. There may have just been the two.

I liked the style of the presenter, reminded me of the kind of film we would have to sit through in Geography lessons when I was at school:D

now the title of this may put you off its looking at oil depletion through maths but its interesting and shows that the way we are going is quite mad .
play it a couple of times if you dont understand the maths its quite important.

Thanks for posting this Jonny, some very eye-opening calculations. Food for thought!
