Oil Depletion and the Collapse of the American Dream.
SYNOPSIS: Since World War II North Americans have invested much of their newfound wealth in suburbia. It has promised a sense of space, affordability, family life and upward mobility. What does Oil Peak mean for North America? As energy prices skyrocket in the coming years, how will the populations of suburbia react to the collapse of their dream? And what can be done NOW, individually and collectively, to avoid The End of Suburbia? Viewers say it best: "The End of Suburbia is a perfect tool for introducing people to peak oil. Just enough humor to sugarcoat the bitter pill". - Jason, California
