By Martin Fluck | Published: May 12, 2012
Gasland, the Oscar-nominated anti-fracking documentary, which sensationally claimed that fracking has polluted water so badly in the small town of Dimock, Pennnsylvania that it has become flammable, had already been exposed as a pack of lies - much like Al Gore’s discredited propaganda movie An Incovenient Truth.

It can’t be long before there is a political backlash from consumers and industry against the West's green gesture politics.
