MovieMail Description:This documentary lays out the stark facts behind our present situation on Earth. Oil has peaked, no significant discoveries of new oil have been made for decades, and companies and countries have been overstating their reserves. Oil, 'the bloodstream of the world economy', is running out. In the last century it has fuelled the astonishing growth in cities, industry and trading systems. It has homo sapiens hooked, and with India and China now expecting their share too, it's running out, sooner than we expect. And without a single realistic alternative to continue the job of oil as our primary engine of growth and development, we have no conception of just how big the adjustments required for human life on earth are going to be. But we better start thinking, and fast. We are so completely dependent on oil for our present everyday existence that one industry expert says in the film: 'Oil is our God. If someone says they worship Jesus, Buddha, Allah, whoever ... they actually worship petroleum.'
