GASLAND

An important and timely exposé, GASLAND, reveals the practices of the largest domestic natural gas drilling boom in history. Developed by Halliburton, "Hydraulic Fracturing," or "fracking," has swept across the United States, opening up new territory in 34 states to extensive drilling, including the Marcellus Shale, a vast formation that underlies most of New York and Pennsylvania, as well as the New York watershed and the Catskills/Poconos.
