The big issue of the 21st century is the impact burning fossil fuels is having on the global environment. This album considers what will happen when fossil fuels run out. What oil and gas resources have we got left and how can we sustain them? The two video tracks explore the connection between fossil fuels and climate change, determining that renewable energy is the only way to secure a sustainable future. This material forms part of the course S278 Earth's physical resources: origin, use and environmental impact.
