The Nation and On The Earth Productions: "In the second video in the series 'Peak Oil and a Changing Climate' from The Nation and On The Earth productions, Richard Heinberg, senior fellow with the Post Carbon Institute, discusses how depleting oil supplies threaten the future of global economic growth.
