300 Years of Fossil Fuels in 300 Seconds by @postcarbon

Interesting video titled "300 years of Fossil Fuels in 300 seconds" that we discovered today.

It's by the Post Carbon Institute. While the narrative occasionally gets amusingly neo-Malthusian, the issues it raises are genuine and of great concern, and something many of the projects we have looked at here on The Green Radar have looked to tackle.

In the Post Carbon Institute's own words,

Fossil fuels have powered human growth and ingenuity for centuries. Now that we're reaching the end of cheap and abundant oil and coal supplies, we're in for an exciting ride. While there's a real risk that we'll fall off a cliff, there's still time to control our transition to a post-carbon future.
