I'm thinking that the guy CEO (?) might have wanted to shave and get a hair-cut prior to filming - wonder if he is still working as a CEO ?

They want this man dead.

How many hundreds of thousands of such leaking ( in operation as well as abandoned ) oil and gas well operations are there across the USA ( alone ) ? Add in the rest of the world and ? And this crap can be controlled - one way or another - it's pure waste - besides the fact of being toxic - toxic to life directly exposed to it and toxic/deadly to all life through it's affect on the environment.

Hmmmm ya gotta wonder if this information is being figured into current Climate Science Projections.

Good points. Problem worse than projections are accounting for.

While being incredibly sickening to hear about - it is also scary beyond belief - the future ( immediate future ) looks far more uncertain now.

We may be seeing just the 'tip of the iceberg".

Ummmmm tip of the Blow Torch? But yeah I get your drift ( not meant to be funny = drift ) - just think of all of the UN-reported pollution - there has got to be a lot ( a lot more ) that has not yet come to light.

OH yeah & Tweet

DKAtoday @DKAtoday · now

So just what kind of evidence is needed to spur some action? http://truthout.com/news/item/24488-take-a-walk-on-a-leaky-uintah-basin-oil-well-with-a-whistleblowing-oil-and-gas-ceo … The government needs PUBLIC PRESSURE.

Stunning - absolutely stunning.

So just exactly what does it take to spur some action?

I think Liz has it right = https://occupywallst.org/forum/transparancy-in-government-hah-as-if/#comment-1036345

[-] 2 points by Nevada1 (5843) 10 years ago

Yes, stunning.

"So just what does it take to spur action?" Good Question. It seems that no amount of evidence is ever enough. The corporations simply say there is no direct evidence, and it all continues. The ultimate problem is that, we really don't have much of a government remaining, just a gang of thugs.

lol = no direct evidence - well no I suppose not - if you are not on a site but are sitting in an office somewhere away from the fields.

There is no mechanism in place for justice.

[-] 2 points by DKAtoday (33802) from Coon Rapids, MN 10 years ago

Nope - not a good one anyway - because if things keep going down this road as they are now - justice/karma will catch up to the criminals - in the form of rioting masses as things do truly finally go straight to hell with no chance of return - sometime just prior to the planet becoming totally unlivable = people falling over dead everywhere from toxicity as well as starvation as well as from thirst ( I mean much much worse than is currently happening - and it might not be very long before we find ourselves there - what with this well leakage debacle ).
