Mountain Man Trailer

He’s been laughed at, cussed, and shot at, but Larry Gibson refuses to abandon his home. Gibson has lived atop Kayford Mountain in West Virginia for decades, fighting to save his family’s land from one of the biggest Mountain Top Removal mines in Appalachia.

“Mountain Man” is a 9 1/2 minute short documentary. It features interviews with West Virginia Department of Environmental Protection Cabinet Secretary Randy Huffman, political strategist Mudcat Saunders, Jesuit Wheeling’s Dr. Ben Stout, retired coal miner Chuck Nelson, Coal River Mountain Watch’s Rory McIlmoil and UK’s Dr. Ron Eller, among other interviews.

Look for “Mountain Man” at film festivals in 2011.

June 7, 2010Bhopal Update

According to the BBC News today: “A court in the Indian city of Bhopal has sentenced eight people to two years each in jail over a gas plant leak that killed thousands of people in 1984. The convictions are the first since the disaster at the Union Carbide plant – the world’s worst industrial accident. Bhopal residents describe the impact of the disaster and give their reaction to the sentencing.” American CEO Warren Anderson was let off the hook completely, continuing the misguided legal trend of deifying executives. Read the rest of the story here.

June 6, 2010Tony Hayward’s chirping seabirds ad

0

So BP went on the offensive this week, launching an ad campaign that extolls its cleanup efforts, complete with chirping seabirds in the background of CEO Tony Hayward’s pompous monologue. “We’ve helped organize the largest environmental response in this nation’s history.” Yes, because you created the largest environmental disaster in this nation’s history! You would think that the thousands of dollars that BP invested in this hot air could have been better spent on the relief effort, or on the welfare of Gulf Coast residents who have lost their livelihoods due to BP’s recklessness.

Below is a video by the National Wildlife Federation featuring still photographs of the Gulf Coast line.
