The Power of Community, 27 September
Our next film screening is ‘The Power of Community - How Cuba Survived Peak Oil’.
This fascinating and empowering film looks at how Cuba coped in the 1990s when imports of cheap Russian oil were stopped, and the resulting community and creativity of the Cuban people in creating solutions. The film will be followed by a discussion about what we can do as a community.
