Film Screening - A Crude Awakening: The Oil Crash

category galway | environment | event notice author Wednesday June 28, 2006 10:01author by Caoimhín Ó Maolallaigh - Green Party Report this post to the editors

Compelling, intelligent and highly entertaining, this film tells the story of how our civilisation's addiction to oil puts it on a collision course with geology.

A Crude Awakening: The Oil Crash
Ray McCormack, Basil Gelpke | Switzerland | 2006

The film visits the world's top experts and comes to a startling – but logical – conclusion: that our industrial society, built on cheap and readily available oil, must be completely re-imagined and overhauled.
Shot on location at oil fields in Azerbaijan, Venezuela, the Middle East and Texas, the film provides not only questions, but offers possible solutions to the most perplexing and important economic, environmental and public policy issue of our time.

The director will attend.

After the film Graham Strouts and Davie Philip from Sustainable Ireland's ‘Powerdown Project' will facilitate a discussion on the subject of 'Peak Oil' in the Town Hall Small.
