The End of Suburbia – Video Documentary
Oil depletion and the collapse of the American Dream.

“The whole suburban project I think can be summarised pretty susinctly, as the greatest misallocation of resources in the history in the world. America took all of its post-war wealth and invested it in a living arrangement that has no future.”

oil“Cheap oil is the party that we’ve been enjoying for the past 150 years. And that party is coming is coming to an end. Within our lifetimes we are going to see the end of the age of oil. And the result of that will be the end of the American way of life.”
