About the film

With behind the scenes access to the largest litigation involving drinking water in American history, How to Poison A Planet investigates how the use of a product as seemingly harmless as firefighting foam, has resulted in the contamination of communities all over the world. Spanning from the heart of New York City to a small First Nations community in Australia the film exposes one of the most widespread environmental disasters in human history.
