"The well on my land is for #NaturalGas. You don't know that stuff is leaking. It has no smell to it. Farmers & ranchers are being told you can walk right up to these well sites & that's putting them in danger. These well sites are INDUSTRIAL sites. Poisonous and explosive vapours come off of them."

🧵 It's said that a politician only has 2 jobs:

1) Get elected
2) Get reelected

They need your vote like you & I need oxygen. That's our POWER & nowhere are we stronger than at the municipal or city level. It just so happens that at the city level is also where #ClimateAction is most viable. #yyc #yyccc #abpoli

Landman Petroganda 🧵 /2

When your fictional TV show serially erects strawman arguments & makes untrue claims about real world, critically important issues like the global #EnergyTransition you're now more than a writer, an actor or a co-star: you're now a propagandist. That's not refutable.

🧵 The #LAFires are the REAL story of "Landman," one that #BigOil sellouts and propagandists #BillyBobThornton, #JohnHamm and #TaylorSheridan won't touch with a ten foot pole.

Is #Landman compelling television. Sure (though it's already getting a little stupid). Is it also thinly veiled, ham-fisted #BigOil -servicing, anti- #EnergyTransition, #Climate-worsening #Disinformation & even outright #Propaganda? Without a doubt. By every definition of the word.
