very eye opening.. but didnt give a whole lot of evidence to many of the bold statements throughout the film. so im halfway convinced and halfway not.

the one thing i would not find surprising is if we had to start living off the land in the next few years.

thoughts?

I never saw the documentary, but I read the book a couple years ago.

To summarize, the author (Jared Diamond) developed a checklist of events leading to the collapse of civilizations in the past, then demonstrated that we're living as if we're hell-bent on making ours collapse.

Thanks for the heads up on the documentary, it took me forever to read the whole book! I'll be sure to check it out.....
