'Mine Your Own Business' - The Dark Side Of Environmentalism

Topics: Global Warming

'Mine Your Own Business' is the world's first anti-environmentalist documentary. The film makers say it "exposes the dark side of environmentalism, and hacks away at the cosy image of environmentalists' as well meaning, harmless activists."




Acclaimed Irish filmmakers Phelim McAleer and Ann McElhinney embarked in mid-October on their multi-city U.S. college campus tour to screen and discuss their newest film, Mine Your Own Business -- the first documentary to ask hard questions of enviro-activist groups.

In "Mine Your Own Business", McAleer -- described by the Wall Street Journal as "Michael Moore..[but] without the smug liberal hypocrisy" -- travels the world as he investigates the consequences of environmental movements for poor communities in Europe, Africa and South America. On his journey he meets Gheorghe Lucian, an unemployed miner from a small village in Romania that has been gripped by poverty and unemployment ever since a government-owned mine shut down. The film shows how some environmentalists will stop at nothing to block construction of a new mine- a mine that will bring jobs, better living conditions, and an overall better live to Gheorghe and his family.
