Review

Ben Brangwyn co-founder of Transition Network says:

"Pros:

  • hardcore, hard-hitting personal journey into the ecological nightmare of civilisation. If you've never read Derrick Jensen or Ran Prieur or seen... "End of Suburbia" this might be a tough watch. On the other hand, if you have, this one is essential viewing.
  • covers plenty of ground – discusses the confluence of Peak Oil, Climate Change, natural resource depletion and population

Cons:

  • short on solutions
  • almost devoid of hope, presupposing that civilisation must collapse before we reach a more sustainable way of living – not much "transition" thought"
