Showings of After The Peak
After The Peak has been proven to be very useful as the "keynote" for a public meeting to raise awareness. The film connects with people who are NOT well-versed in Peak Oil issues because it focusses on the impact of these problems on a local community and its citizens. In addition, because the film is less than half an hour in running time, it can be shown and leave an hour or more for discussion. We've had great response holding meetings like this in several locations in North Carolina. Awareness is a global problem; consider hosting a meeting yourself!
