Aftermath: World Without Oil in HD - P2 of 3

Part 2 of 3

What would our world look like if we ran out of oil? The lifeblood of our high-tech, highly mobile world won't last forever. Watch one scenario of what happens when one day oil does run out. How might our world change and how would we adapt? Aftermath follows the chaotic days and months after this catastrophic event through dramatic re-creations and CGI animation. Find out how we might cope as food disappears, electrical power fails and winter turns the big cities into isolated pockets of concrete and glass. What will be more important to our survival — the technology to develop new sources of energy, or a change to a more sustainable way of life?

I would expect that a sudden disappearence of oil and the catastrophic consequences that would follow would result in a major shift in social and cultural thinking. The exposure of the utter vulnerability in consumerist way of life (all dependent on oil) would cause ideas like Capitalism and industrialization to be discredited. Green ideologies, Primitivism, Back-to-the-land movements would become popular. Renewable energy would be the future.

Just imagine what good would come out of it...
