Only Newcastle screening - not to be missed!

This film shows American filmmaker Josh Fox unravelling the environmental hazards of hydraulic fracturing aka 'fracking' occuring throughout the US in the current gas drilling boom.

Gasland is timely and disturbing - this same industry has had considerable impacts in Qld and is now knocking on the NSW Government's door: our Hunter Valley wineries and landholders stand to lose much.

This powerful film is a must-see for everyone concerned about the safety of our water and food supplies and the health of our communities and environment... and is simply a great film.

Hosted by Climate Action Newcastle (CAN) and Hands off our Coast (HOOC)

We welcome speakers John Thompson of the Hunter Valley Protection Alliance (HVPA) and "The Frackman" Dayne Pratzky down from the advanced gas lands of Queensland.

Tickets $15/$12 concession - at door or directly from any CAN or HOOC contacts you may have.
