Directed by Don McCorkell. Scientists and health officials have raised grave concerns about so-called "factory farms". They have been called "mini Chernobyls" causing vast environmental damage and risk to human health. The film starts in the U.S. with a brief look at our history and how we got from a country of family farms to one dominated by multinational corporations with gigantic factory farms--literally cities of animals. The film examines the impact of urbanizing animal populations without a way to handle the vast amounts of sewage generated.

  • I don't know where this was filmed, but I know that Ohio and Michigan are having big problems with factory farms/ mega farms/ CAFO (concentrated animal feeding operation). They seem to violate every environmental law and just pay the fine and keep on polluting.
