The Power of Community: How Cuba Survived Peak Oil

Richard Heinberg, author of The Party's Over, Powerdown, and The Oil Depletion Protocol, writes: "Everyone who is concerned about Peak Oil needs to see this film. Cuba survived an energy famine during the 1990s, and how it did so constitutes one of the most important and hopeful stories of the past few decades. It is a story not just of individual achievement, but of the collective mobilization of an entire society to meet an enormous challenge. Lest the point be missed, I will underscore it: this particular challenge – the problem of energy scarcity is one we will all be facing very soon. "
