Western Stampede: The Rush For
Coalbed Methane. (15.2 MB)
Americans are hearing about the need
to get our energy from home. Much of that energy, in the form of
coalbed methane, will come from our Western Lands. Can the quest
for energy coexist with the wild wide-open spaces, and rural communities
that define the West? Producer Eric Whitney, takes you to the new
energy battlegrounds, where you'll meet developers, cowboys, conservationists,
and get the news you need to decide if the new energy promise is
worth the price.
