Water
Just watched the documentary "Blue Gold", shown by our Occupy group in conjunction with the Frackdown. Had excellent community conversation after with Q&A and lots of petition signatures.
I live in an agricultural area where the frackers get first dibs on the water; the city has just asked us to stop watering our lawns because of the drought. The county has 19,000 fracking wells and counting, and farmers are really hurting for water.
If you haven't seen the film you can watch it here:

For more info on our anti-fracking go to FrackFiles on facebook.

Gasland was very good too.
I also re-watched Inside Job this weekend. We absolutely must wrest control of our government from corporations & institutions like these.
