On Feb. 9, Link TV will be airing a special called The End of Oil that features the new film Crude Impact. The film addresses the effects our relentless pursuit of oil has had on the environment and explores some of the potential ramifications of Peak Oil.

During the airing of the program, we will be leading an online discussion at linktv.org/care2 and on our site with James Wood, director of the film, and oil experts like Richard Heinberg and Antonia Juhasz. It will take place on Feb. 9 from 9-11 p.m. ET and 6-8 p.m. PT. We are hoping to get the word out about the discussion to people that might be interested. So please join us. Here is a clip from the film and an example of some of what we will be talking about:

I saw this movie at our local University's Peak Oil committee meeting last Friday, and thought it was good. We were viewing it to decide whether to show it on campus to students and the community in general, and one person mentioned that perhaps we should have counselers available after the showing in case anyone suffered from extreme depression or other effects of viewing it. Also suggested was a choice of razor blades or Prozac. Kind of a depressing movie, but worth watching.

This is where the discussion will take place:

Basically, we are hoping to give viewers a chance to get some insight into the making of the film and discuss the issues raised in the film with oil experts (though my guess is many of the people in this forum would qualify as such.) But I guess that is the point, to provide a place where very informed people can spread there knowledge a bit.
