"the largest domestic natural gas drilling boom in history has swept across the united states. the
halliburton-developed drilling technology of "fracking" or hydraulic fracturing has unlocked a "saudia
arabia of natural gas" just beneath us. but is fracking safe? when filmmaker josh fox is asked to lease his
land for drilling, he embarks on a cross-country odyssey uncovering a trail of secrets, lies and
contamination. a recently drilled nearby pennsylvania town reports that residents are able to light their
drinking water on fire. this is just one of the many absurd and astonishing revelations of a new country
called gasland. part verite travelogue, part expose, part mystery, part bluegrass banjo meltdown, part
showdown."
after seeing this man on "the daily show" i am very happy to see it posted on eztv. this is a must
for anyone into politics, the environment or people being safe in their own homes.
honestly, this was a nice surprise to see in my feed today. i'm sharing and spreading (the word)
"gasland is an american documentary film written and directed by josh fox. the film focuses on
communities in the united states impacted by natural gas drilling and, specifically, a stimulation method
known as hydraulic fracturing." -wikipedia
very good documentary, especially for those of us who are so called enviromentalists. i live in pa
and there is a politician who wants to drill in one of our beatiful lakes here so the story about
the pa town is very relevant to me. hbo always buys rights to great documentaries.
guys this is the documentary we saw in the daily show or in the colberft report that the guy found gas
in is tubes sistem becouse in the usa they pay to put some reservoir in peoples home and then they
just do shiiiiiit
this is going to figuratively and literally kill the united states of america since she is poisoning
her own water source and not only that she is destroying one of the major export product,
agricultural product through this insanity.
nobody is going to be safe with that much volatile chemical pumped in the underground water supply,
as natural gas is released to the surface so are the chemicals and it will flow into the river
heading down stream contaminating everything along the path.
holy frack!! time to introduce some .308 lead into the politicians and gas companies
arses! wanna poisen the people slowly? maybe, it's time for some lead poisenng, 145gr
at a time, you mutherfrackers!!
we are not doing this. the oil companies are doing this. they as of right now own everything and
everybody. but i say bullshit. stand up and fight. don't take their money and bribes. wake up america.
i know crazy people always say it is time for a revolution, but i think i finally agree with them
after watching this. i had high hopes for obama, but i have since come to realize that it doesn't
matter who is in office, bush, obama, clinton, they are all puppets and pretty powerless to regulate
these corporations.
everyone is corrupt. the riaa have lawyers in the white house, haliburton and monsanto have members
within the epa, the fda and whatever other fancy initialed organizations exist. these people are
truly evil and only care about money.
we should forget about our political differences and unite as a people to overthrow (through
violence if necessary) these corrupt agencies and governments. as a people we are mostly sheep and
let these people use politics to keep us distracted and arguing amongst ourselves. it is time to
change that.
