Have you still not seen the documentary GASLAND? Do
you want to see it again? Join Food and Water Watch this Thursday
evening, May 31st, from 7:00 - 9:00 p.m.
at Rumson Presbyterian, 4 East River Road, Rumson, NJ 07760 for a FREE
community screening of the film. To
register, please visit: http://bit.ly/GaslandAtRumsonPresbyterian
GASLAND exposes the highly pollutive process known as
fracking, short for hydraulic fracturing, whereby natural gas is extracted from
shale rock by pumping a large volume of water, sand, and toxic chemicals into
the ground. See the movie trailer
here: http://www.gaslandthemovie.com/trailer.
PBS did an illuminating interview with the film’s creator,
Josh Fox. Here’s the link: http://video.pbs.org/video/1452296560/.
Stick around after the movie for a discussion on how you can
be involved in the local campaign to ban fracking and fracking waste in New
Jersey. Also, there is a FREE
seminar on fracking at the Middletown Library main branch on June 7th
at 7 p.m.

I've seen it twice. It is well worth checking out since it is very relevant to NJ and our water supply
