DESCRIPTION:Thursday, May 18, 7:30 pm. HopeDance Films presents the recently 
 released......"The Power of Community: How Cuba Survived Peak Oil." A group 
 of peak oil enthusiasts from Ohio travel with film director, Greg Green 
 (The End of Suburbia), to learn first hand how Cubans survived their 
 tragedy of being cut off from Soviet oil. Since they couldn't fuel their 
 aging cars, they walked, biked, rode buses, and carpooled... as well as 
 learned quickly how to grow food to survive. This film is to give hope to 
 the developed world as it wakes up to the consequences of being addicted to 
 oil, and to lift American's prejudice of Cuba by showing the Cuban people 
 as they are. The filmmakers do this by having the people tell their story 
 on film. It's a story of their dedication to independence and triumph over 
 adversity, and a story of cooperation and hope. Several Cubans expressed 
 the belief that living on an island, with its natural boundaries, breeds 
 awareness that there are limits to natural resourses. Internationally known 
 expert on Peak Oil, author of The Party's Over and Power Down and core 
 faculty member of New College, Richard Heinberg will answer questions after 
 the film. Go to
