Hi Tyler
I would very much like to be able to show your documentary to our students here at Otago Polytechnic in New Zealand. It is just the right length for a lunch time session. ‘Sustainability is the current buzzword of our institution, and so I’d like to take advantage of that, having read a lot about peak oil and associated issues.

I didn’t say you shot the film, I said you made the documentary—and documentaries are all about putting sound and images from other sources together. You collected all this stuff, you put them together, and you fully deserve the credit for that.

I should really check this page more often…

Jason - thank you so much for you support, but as dimeo (correctly) mentioned, nearly all the footage was taken from Baraka and other films. So I think it’s misleading to attribute all the credit to myself.

John - I’ll have your copy in the mail ASAP!

Honestly, I am quite amazed and thrilled this video became as popular as it did. I very much doubted it would get any viewership beyond my Environmental Studies class (I wasn’t even thinking about IshCon at the time), and damn how wrong I was! Thank you all for your support.

I’m sure Tyler would be happy to help you out; I’ve emailed him to let him know about your comment here, so I think he’ll be in touch with you soon. I don’t want to post his email and subject him to spam, you understand.

Can you tell me how to get Yu Koyo Peya? Some folks have asked me and I’d really like to score a copy myself.

> “You may find my fingerprints all over it online, but that’s just because I was the one that digitized it, uploaded it, and made it available to online audiences (with Tyler’s permission).”

well its crap quality - the one on google/youtube. Any chance of finding a torrent of a higher-res version somewhere? It would make great propaganda to show at the uni but that version is unwatchable…

Very interesting presentation. I agree almost entirely, and I like most of the interview sources.
I suspect, though, that something more angering will happen, because there is so much of it going on right now, and the recent book “Overthrow” by Stephen Kinzer, describes a century of the US doing it extensively.
That ‘it’ being, Western nations avoiding collapse by forcing collapse onto more vulnerable countries, in order to gain control of resources, or keep cheap labor available.

Documentary? Much of this footage was ripped from Barraka

Well, I don’t think agriculture is going to be viable, but horticulture/permaculture probably has a future, at least for a while.

The vast (and I do mean vast) majority if agriculture relies on oil in some form. Even many of the “organic” farms nowadays use it in [b]some[/b] form. Keep in mind the Great Dust Bowl if you want to know the logical ramifications of pre-industrial agriculture.
