Revi wrote:Here's how the movie is summarized for a local showing:
The hour long film “Peak Oil: A Love Story” was made by filmmaker Nelson Cole (of Cambridge, ME) and features Iver Lofving (Skowhegan resident). It summarizes Lofving’s evolving theory that when the Earth’s petroleum supplies reach their zenith — the peak of oil production — the eventual collapse of civilization will not be far behind. The film leaves viewers with the question: Is peak oil the end of the world or a new beginning?
I think it's a little heavy, but maybe it will work to interest the uninitiated.
What do you think?

Moved earth and heaven, that which we are, we are;
One equal temper of heroic hearts,
Made weak by time and fate, but strong in will
To strive, to seek, to find, and not to yield.
