There's no Tomorrow - documentary

Am animator acquaintance of mine spent the last few years of his time making this 30 minute film about about resource depletion and the impossibility of infinite growth on a finite planet.

I think it sums things up pretty nicely.

Sums up the history and likely future of a world based on fossil fuels.

I'll pass this on.

This is very disturbing.But ultimatley there's no escape for the conundrum we're in as a species.This video says it all.The ONLY way out is to either colonise 'other planets' or commit mass genocide.Period.We live on a world of finite resources.As a 'planet'...as a 'species'....we can only 'fund' so much.For those who wonder,I consider myself a Libertarian and a conservative.Not a liberal or a progressive.Neither republican or democrat...just 'realistic'.
