Haven't found in searching I hope it won't double thread

Great movie made by Irish television RTE.ie
Ireland will suffer. Goodbye Ryan Air, so I'm going to invest in stock options... in next few years.

Here it is 60 minutes
Peak oil is only an indication and a premise of limits to growth on a finite planet.
Denial is the most predictable of all human responses.

Looked pretty good, pretty realistic and not much pie in the sky. This is what we need to see on, as you perhaps inadvertantly suggested, 60 minutes. Or 20/20, MacNeil/Lehrer, etc. Despite the Ireland-centricity, it's a good primer to the topic. I'll be forwarding this to a few friends, in a last-ditch effort to show them I'm not just making this shit up...
Lord, here comes the flood
We'll say goodbye to flesh and blood
If again the seas are silent in any still alive
It'll be those who gave their island to survive...

There is a good documenty on www.powerswitch.org.uk

here: http://abc.net.au/4corners/special_eds/20060710/

Its an Aussie doc but its based on the global issue and it interviews some of the main people in the debate.
