FILM: The End of Suburbia

This film is an interesting exploration of the Peak Oil phenomenon, when the maximum rate of global petroleum extraction is reached and the rate of production enters a suicidal decline; as well as the implications it will have on the North America suburban lifestyle.

The director Gregory Greene explores the topic by having the host, Canadian Broadcaster Barrie Zwicker, interview a variety of people and gather information on the topic.

The film portrays a generous exploration of the topic of oil depletion and the fallacy of the American Dream.

I definitely recommend this film be watched.
