The Dogwood Initiative UVic club and Cowichan Energy Alternatives present a screening of "Fuel" the movie and a showcase of local sustainability initiatives on March 25th beginning at 5:00pm at the David lam auditorium at the University of Victoria.

FUEL is a comprehensive and entertaining look at energy in America: a history of where we have been, our present predicament and a solution to our dependence on foreign oil.

Rousing and reactionary, FUEL is an amazing, in-depth, personal journey of oil use and abuse
as it examines wide-ranging energy solutions other than oil, the faltering US auto and petroleum industries, and the latest stirrings of the American mindset toward alternative energy. Interviews with a wide range of environmentalists, policy makers and educators, along with such "green" celebrities as Woody Harrelson, Sheryl Crow and Larry Hagman offer serious fuel for thought.

FUEL can help break the discussion wide open as it exposes the shocking connections between the auto industry, the oil industry and government, while exploring alternative energies such as solar wind, electricity and non-food based biofuels.

Running time: 111 minutes plus introduction by The Dogwood Initiative UVic club and Cowichan Energy Alternatives.

"I was jumping out of my seat! Every school needs to show this to their classes!"

Deborah Davonport, Atlanta Public Schools, Georgia
