Hi folks!

Our local transition towns group is looking at building awareness of Peak Oil.

Someone had a great idea to get the local cinema to run short Peak Oil films or videos before the main feature.

Can anyone recommend some good clips on YouTube, or the like, that could be used for this? We would want to try and contact the original producers to see if they would be interested in supplying high-quality versions.

And no, the one with the stripping girl is not appropriate, sorry. :)

But that is the best one.

She got everything right on the money.

She got everything right except the small detail of what peak oil is.

She looks good though.

It's not Peak Oil specific and probably not what you're looking for in this particular instance, but for me it's still the most poignant 3:30 articulation of the crossroads we stand at today.

I wonder what he'd make of things now?

Ask Oily Cassandra. And visit her site. Lots of stuff there. Else, a simple YouTube search on "oil" or "peak oil" will bring up loads of stuff. Or, you can look at kkob's favorites there.

Cheers
