The 88 Million Barrel Problem: The Engineering Race to Replace Fossil Fuels

Modern civilization is built on a single, ultra-dense fuel source: Oil. Every single day, the global economy burns through 88 million barrels, unleashing a density of energy that no other technology has ever matched. As extraction becomes more dangerous, from deep-sea drilling to hydraulic fracturing, engineers are racing to rebuild the machine of "Spaceship Earth" while it’s still in motion. But is a full transition physically possible? From the massive 11,000-megawatt Belo Monte dam in Brazil to the geothermal power plants of Iceland and the struggling wind farms of Germany, this documentary analyzes the logistical nightmare of abandoning fossil fuels. We examine the grid instability caused by renewables, the controversial risks of nuclear power after Fukushima, and the sheer scale required to replace the "Master Resource".
