Jane Fonda's 'Gaslit' Documentary Highlights Gulf Coast Environmental Fight
Jane Fonda made a documentary called 'Gaslit' about how making liquid natural gas (LNG) is hurting people and nature in places like Texas and the Gulf Coast.
She visited these areas and talked to people who are affected, like fishermen, farmers, and former oil workers.
They are all working together to stop the pollution and protect their homes.
The documentary shows how bad the pollution is and how it's making people sick.
Jane Fonda promises to keep fighting for these communities until people know what's happening.
The movie wants to make people angry about the problem and inspired to help.
Jane Fonda's documentary 'Gaslit' premieres at the Santa Barbara Film Festival on February 5.
The film highlights the environmental and health impacts of LNG production on Gulf Coast communities.
Current LNG terminals are estimated to cause 60 premature deaths and $957 million in health costs per year.
If all planned LNG terminals are built, these numbers could rise to 149 premature deaths and $2.33 billion in health costs annually.
The documentary features Fonda and other activists visiting affected communities and documenting the pollution.
