land and that's exactly the point of all of our advocacy efforts we've joined in partnership with josh fox and over one hundred other organizations to rally on july twenty eighth in washington d.c. to demand that the industry does better and that the central government take action to stop the frack attack that's the title of our rally july twenty eighth in washington d.c. and it will be the first ever national action against the most destructive practices of the oil and gas industry hydraulic fracturing. we don't really have too much time but quickly just you know proponents say that fracking if it's done correctly as a sustainable and a safe way to extract energy from from our land it also encourages us to be energy independent if it's done correctly do you think that it is a feasible way and it could be a good thing if it's done correctly. that phrase if it's done correctly is a is a big if for the communities who live with this industry right now we know that it is not proven to be done correctly across america and that's why citizens who live with the oil and gas industry are rising up

filmmaker josh fox was one of the protesters in ohio. >> i have watched something absolutely remarkable happening across the united states of america. unbelievable. >> reporter: fox has traveled around the u.s. visiting areas where shale gas is being extracted. he looked at how it has affected people's lives. two years ago, fox released a documentary called "gasland," which focuses on groundwater becoming contaminated by fracking. it has generated widespread public debate. in columbus, ohio's capital city, the protesters occupied the statehouse. >> we continue to frack in the state. my asthma will get worse. >> fracking has changed my life forever. water i thought was safe i drank for a long period of time and developed numerous health problems. >> i'm trying to do everything i can to support those people because they are in the fight of their lives. this is not just environmentalism as an idea. this is literally a threat to where you live. >> reporter: fox is currently working on a sequel to "gasland" and has filmed at sites in europe and australia. he hopes this will spur anti-frackin

some trailers from pro fracking documentaries they sat through a panel much of this in response to josh fox's documentary gasland and according to reports there were several hundred of washington's biggest influencers from capitol hill k. street federal agencies and the media who are there now aside from all kinds of delicious snacks the blog favors d.c. even pointed out be cleverly named cocktails like teenie so do you need any more proof of how industries win over this town despite the negative health and environmental effects of fracking there are new bits of information coming out all the time of the dangers a new study just last week for example found a link between fracking and low birth weights for babies or how about the leaked internal memo that came from nationwide mutual insurance this memo determine that the risks of hydraulic fracturing were too great to provide coverage for that makes them just the first insurance company to choose not to cover fracking for now but i'd bet you that it's not going to stay that way the whole point is that instead of spending money to do more resea

"gasland," josh fox. it has been a pleasure. see his movie. that's "viewpoint" tonight. stay tune to enter the war room with jennifer granholm. >> i'm jennifer granholm. mitt takes it to israel. oiy. do you remember when the gaffes were garden variety foot-in-mouth type stuff? so much for the solid sal salad days. he tells jewish audiences that cultural differences make the difference between israel and palestine. that's a fire that needs stoking. i never thought i would say this but mitt, please, come home. [ ♪ theme music ♪ ] >> mitt romney is at it again making statements on foreign soil. this seemed to contradict official policy whale offending entire populations. this time it's the palestinians. but really here is my question. are these gaffes? or are they maybe finely tuned admissions. mitt romney told donors in israel that they're palestinianing are poorer than israelis because of their cultural. you notice the stark difference in economic vitality, culture makes all the difference. unsurprisingly an palestineen official called the remarks racist. why would romney

"the sky is pink." the governor said he will let science decide this. you don't agree with that? >> no, i do. it focuses on industry-related science. smoking gun memos in the industry drawers that prove they have known all along, for decades that their process contaminates ground water. >> you agree with the governor's approach to this? >> if the governor pays attention to the science and not the +áju)jtjumation. >> there are others that say in this science approach really is still not the right approach. that's what i was questioning to you at the top there. >> gas drilling and fracking is an industrial process. it is especially harmful where you have places that are needing ground water. they are telling you the sky is pink. what we found is that they hired the same pr company that the tobacco industry hired for decades to smear the idea that tobacco caused lung cancer and the gas industry had memos inÑi their drawers s
