This new film explores our current ecological and economic crisis stemming from our dependence on cheap and abundant energy; turning fossil fuels into a double-edged sword. Although our actions have lifted our civilization to new heights, it has come at a tremendous price. We are now at a point where humanity's demands for natural resources far exceed the earth's capacity to sustain us. The extraction and the use of those resources in the past two centuries have changed our climate and ecosystems so significantly, that a new geological era had to be created.

    Yeah, and the Earth is full of Marshmallow-tasting fairy dust.

  • We need to stop rewarding people ( with money ) for producing MORE stuff and selling MORE stuff and trashing MORE of the planet. We need to CONSUME LESS and SHARE MORE.  This economic system is dysfunctional.
