Gas Drilling: Worker Safety

Chilling, important short film upcoming from Josh Fox, on worker safety in the gas fields. Please watch and share the trailer, here. Josh Fox says, "Senator Tony Avella of NY has taken up their cause, drafting a worker safety bill for New York that will serve as a template for workers in the oil and gas fields across the US. ... Negligence on sites and unsafe working conditions including risk of chemical exposure cannot be acceptable by our governments that are touting a jobs boom in the gas fields any longer."
