Crude Aesthetics (2021)

No other nation consumes as much oil as the United States, which accounts for more than 20% of global consumption annually. The hunger for this resource has poisoned landmasses around the world and has defined the nation's politics for decades. In Los Angeles and its vicinity, home to the country's largest urban oil field and refineries, America is being transformed into a bizarre engine, the pacemaker of the passing age of petroleum.
