Scope and content
The item is a documentary made by the National Film Board in 1979. "The energy problem has finally reached our pocketbooks, the point where real solutions have to be found. Industry and citizens must look for ways to conserve energy in order to lower the escalating cost of operating factories, heating homes and transporting people and goods. THIS IS AN EMERGENCY looks at some of the methods used in Sweden and gives practical solutions to the much talked about energy crisis. In an entertaining way, the film delivers important information about controlling energy costs that affect the price of goods we buy." (NFB description)
