In this fast-paced video, Richard Heinberg, Senior Fellow-in-Residence at Post Carbon Institute offers an informative glimpse at how we have become so addicted to fossil fuels and what we need to do to preserve our world.
In a span of three short lifetimes, the world has been on “the ultimate roller coaster ride,” seeing the population explode to over 7 billion, and all this from basing our existence on a fuel-based economy. Heinberg offers solutions to some of our problems, none of which will be easy to accomplish and will require us to look at the world with new eyes. It will be the ride of a lifetime and “business as Unusual.”
