Our economy and lifestyle are oil-dependent. Peak oil will soon make these unsustainable. Climate Change requires a post-carbon society. Find out how Cuba dealt creatively with its Peak Oil when the Soviet Union collapsed. See what rising energy costs might mean for our society.
The films will be followed by an OPEN DISCUSSION to explore what we can do in Shaftesbury to prepare for the twin challenges of Peak Oil and Climate Change.
