I subscribe to Matt Savinar's arresting mwebsite, Life After the Oil Crash because it is usually the place for breaking news. I found BBC's documentary there, and encourage you to check it out.
I sent the link to the BBC's hard hitting documentary on the end of the age of oil, that we are now entering, to all our councillors at Burlington city hall. I will send it to all councillors at the region too.
They just don't get it. Many of them, like Craven, Thoem, Jackson, have had this information for months. They are waiting for what, a miracle? For public opinion to 'allow them' to act courageously and come out of the closet?
Well, what can we do, we can send emails to all and anyone we do business with. All business cards you collect are fair game for going on a maillist. Start raising the heat.
Now, I encourage you to watch this streaming video on your computer, then send it on.

I believe this video has the content to spark a dialogue here at our site. I encourage you to watch at least part of it, and then post something. BurlingtonCanRelocalize has been eerily silent, most of the posts are mine. It feels like I'm talking to myself.
As YOU educate yourself, I hope you will see the importance of raising consciousness everywhere about the climate/energy/earth crisis. CRISIS is not too hard a word. If the BBC can do it, why can't we?
