Josh Fox's 2010 documentary, GASLAND, won a Special Jury Prize at Sundance and screened at Cannes. It addresses hydraulic fracturing, or fracking, a highly contentious and high-risk energy alternative.

The American Natural Gas Alliance (ANGA) criticizes the film, arguing that Gasland is "flawed" in this video.

To form your own informed opinion, consider a wide range of sustainability voices, especially citizens experiencing fracking firsthand in their communities.

Haynesville takes place in the Louisiana backwoods and follows the momentous discovery of the largest natural gas field in the United States. As the Haynesville boom erupts, three lives are caught in the middle of the find: A single mom defends her communitys environmental protections, an African American preacher attempts to use the riches to build a school, and a self-described country boy finds himself conflicted as he weighs losing his land against becoming an overnight millionaire. From a broader perspective, Haynesville explores what a natural gas find of this scale could mean to the United States energy picture as environmentalists, academics and pundits hash out the concept of a clean energy future and discuss how the Haynesvilles reserves could provide an energy answer.

Alexander Van de Putte, a Senior Director and Operating Officer at PFC Energy International, discusses how "givens" and "wildcards" will influence future global energy needs.

He defines "givens" as low-uncertainty, high-impact events such as climate change, demographics, and hydrocarbon supply, all of which significantly affect energy production. "Wildcards," conversely, are low-probability, high-impact events that must be logical and explainable.

Van de Putte proposes the BRINKS nations (Brazil, Russia, Iraq, Nigeria, and Kazakhstan) and nuclear energy as the primary wildcards.

On January 28, 2010, the World Economic Forum (weforum.org) addressed increasing energy security concerns. Despite a significant decline in energy prices from their 2008 peak, major producing and consuming economies diverge on developing a more secure and stable energy system.

A central question was: How can producers and consumers develop mutually beneficial approaches to energy security?

Key participants included Ilham Aliyev (President of Azerbaijan), Thierry Desmarest (Chairman, Total), Khalid A. Al Falih (President & CEO, Saudi Aramco), Tony Hayward (Group Chief Executive, BP), Andrew N. Liveris (Chairman & CEO, Dow Chemical Company), and Peter Voser (Chief Executive Officer, Royal Dutch Shell).

Fred Kirschenmann, Distinguished Fellow at the Leopold Center for Sustainable Agriculture, asserts that organic farming doesn't automatically equate to sustainability. He advocates for a shift from a "steady state" to "resiliency," noting that "greening up" isn't enough.

Kirschenmann, a third-generation organic farmer and long-time leader, highlights the unsustainable depletion of finite energy (hydrocarbons) and water resources. He warns that technology alone cannot provide substitute solutions. This insight stems from his talk at the Organicology conference.

The "Race for American Jobs: Clean Energy Leadership" was a four-week, coast-to-coast virtual campaign by BICEP, in partnership with We Can Lead. It aimed to highlight the economic and job-creation benefits of national climate and energy legislation, advocating for investment in a low-carbon economy and establishing a carbon price.

The campaign engaged business leaders nationwide through events in Oregon, Colorado, Ohio, and New Hampshire, concluding in Washington on March 10. Each event featured panel discussions with major consumer brands and local clean economy entrepreneurs, contributing to thought leadership in Sustainability, Clean Tech, and Energy in 2010.
