GasLand (2010)
When you can light your tap water on fire, someone is lying to you.
Where to Watch
Synopsis
HBO documentary investigating the devastating effects of hydraulic fracturing (fracking) across America.
Our Review
The iconic image of tap water being set on fire became a symbol for corporate environmental denial. The gas industry's playbook is identical to the asbestos industry: fund studies that contradict independent science, lobby for regulatory exemptions, and deny harm while communities get sick.
Who Should Watch
Advocates and anyone interested in how industries use lobbying and junk science to avoid regulation.
