Blue Mtn Beach!!
FUEL is an insightful portrait of America?s addiction to oil and an uplifting testament to the immediacy of new energy solutions. Director, Josh Tickell, a young activist, shuttles us on a whirlwind journey to track the rising domination of the petrochemical industry?from Rockefeller?s strategy to halt Ford?s first ethanol cars to Vice President Cheney's petrochemical company sponsored energy legislation ? and reveals a gamut of available solutions to "repower America" ?from vertical farms that occupy skyscrapers to algae facilities that turn wastewater into fuel. Tickell and a surprising array of environmentalists, policy makers, and entertainment notables take us through America?s complicated, often ignominious energy past and illuminate a hopeful, achievable future, where decentralized, sustainable living is not only possible, it?s imperative.

We watched it on Netflix Roku instant last night. You can also watch it next Tuesday July 13 at Alys Beach as part of Torchlight Series. Or watch it online.
