Tickell, Josh. Fuel. Burbank: Cinema Libre Studio, 2008. HD, 111 min. https://youtu.be/upTCSSkxlxE.

Eleven years in the making, Fuel is the in-depth personal journey of filmmaker and eco-evangelist Josh Tickell, who takes us on a hip, fast-paced road trip into America’s dependence on foreign oil. Combining a history lesson of the US auto and petroleum industries and interviews with a wide range of policy makers, educators, and activists such as Woody Harrelson, Sheryl Crow, Neil Young and Willie Nelson. Animated by powerful graphics, Fuel looks into our future offering hope via a wide-range of renewable energy and bio-fuels. (Source: Adapted from the Official Film Website Press Kit)
