Gasoline Dreams is a graphic novel by Simon Orpana that argues cultural dependence on fossil fuels, or "petroculture," is a major barrier to addressing climate change. The book uses historical, critical theory, and popular culture analyses, presented in a graphic format, to show how our fantasies and habits—not just technological or governmental issues—reinforce this dependency. It challenges the idea of a linear progression of human history toward our energy-intensive societies and encourages readers to imagine and work toward more sustainable alternatives.
