A Crude Awakening: The Oil Crash
An astoundingly sobering and unashamedly apocalyptic documentary about the world's obsession with oil, when it's going to run out, and what will happen when it does. And it's not looking good. An impressive array of impassive experts - including Republicans and even a former OPEC leader - spell out the potentially dire consequences of our continued unbridled consumption of global oil stocks.
