How a small town beat the frackers
http://earthjustice.org/advocacy-campaigns/unfracktured?utm_source=crm"The industry kept saying: 'We have the power; you have none. We are coming. Get out of the way or leave,'" says Joanne Cipolla-Dennis, recalling what happened when the oil and gas industry came to her town of Dryden, NY.
But Joanne and her neighbors came up with a plan. Watch the true story of people who discovered their shared strength and turned the tables on a powerful industry.
As fracking bears down on 31 states across the country, this story offers hope and important lessons for communities trying to protect themselves.
Please help us spread the word from coast to coast—and get people the information they need to win the fight against fracking.
