Repeat screening of an excellent documentary on peak oil to be shown on TV featuring Colin Campbell of ASPO Ireland (Association for the Study of Peak Oil & Gas Ireland).

Blurb lifted off TG4 website:

'OIL: THE BEGINNING OF THE END'

The world production of oil will soon start to decline: in one year as several experts have predicted or in thirty years according to others. There is no time to lose. The development of renewable forms of energy along with nuclear energy won't be enough to make up for the lack of black gold. The only solution is to reduce our consumption of energy. Unfortunately, we are not going the right way about it. We perfectly well know that oil is a fossil non-renewable energy, and yet, our planet consume more and more of it everyday. How can the world be made to understand? Four distinguished international specialists, prophets of the petroapocalypse, have agreed to conduct our film targeted for the general public.

I understand that the doc is originally by a French production company but it is mostly in English but there will be on-screen subtitles in English when needed.
