OIL MUSIC VIDEO

"It's About Oil" ...  by Amy Martin

A clip from Amy Martin's funny song about "black gold" and it's relationship to how things are.

It's about oil, it's about greed;
It's about rich white men getting richer;
It's about fear, and control
Of those barrels of black gold.
Well, step up, folks, to another war
Where we never really say what we're fighting for;
It's easy to pretend we're defending our native soil;
Put it in the headlines, I want to see it in big lights:
Hello—it's about oil !

OIL MUSIC VIDEO

"Only So Much Oil in the Ground" ...  by The Tower Of Power

Tower of Power live, doing one of their classics.

There's only so much oil on the ground;
Sooner or later there won't be much around.
Tell that to your kids while you driving downtown...
That there's only so much oil on the ground.
If we keep on like we're doing things for sure will not be cool;
It's a fact—we just ain't got sufficient fuel.

OIL MUSIC VIDEO

"Royal Oil" ...  by Mighty Mighty Bosstones

A good music video about oil.

Royal Oil, big trouble brewing;
Long, lonely road, long road to ruin;
Wrong path to take,
Great big mistake;
And then you sleep down in the soil...
Nothing comes from nothing, come on Royal Oil.

Don't give me no shit
About blood, sweat, tears and toil—
It's all about the price of oil.

climate feedback loop video link; thumb of global warming slide
THE REAL THIRD RAIL OF CLIMATE CHANGE
The two stereotypical sides of the climate debate are (a) climate change is a potential planet-killer and MUST be addressed; and (b) climate change is nothing to worry about, it's all part of a natural cycle. Guy McPherson reviews the scientific evidence that there is a third scenario: Climate change has already entered a runaway-feedback mode and there is now nothing humans can do to reverse the catastrophic level of warming that's coming—and coming soon. The good news? McPherson delivers his dark news clearly, with a great sense of humor, and with excellent insights into the human condition.  Watch climate feedback loop video(1:51:49)
