From Solar San Antonio:

October 15, 2009 at 7:30 pm
Burning the Future: Coal in America examines the explosive conflict between the coal industry and residents of West Virginia. Confronted by emerging “clean coal” energy policies, local activists watch a world blind to the devastation caused by coal's extraction. Faced with toxic ground water and the obliteration of 1.4 million acres of mountains, our heroes launch a valiant fight to arouse the nation's help in protecting their mountains, saving their families, and preserving their way of life.

The series is designed to make educational opportunities around environmental issues more widely available through high quality, award--winning films and documentaries.
