The Devil We Know

This is an eye opening, gut turning, factual film that tells the stories of people who have been directly affected by PFOA and PFOS chemicals. This is not a history story, it applies in our world now, and in our future. These chemicals are the biggest threat to having safe and accessible drinking water, and it is effecting water systems across our country and the world!! The more our public learns the better we can protect ourselves. Don't take your safe tap water for granted And dont assume big corporations care about you and the water you drink.

The people that did this at Dupont (and other companies like it), will continue to operate with near impunity. So many of them should be in prison for murder, because they knowingly poisoned water supplies of thousands of people. Yet, they walk free....enjoying the blood money that they earned because the EPA and governmental agencies are completely corrupt. When the punishment for corporations committing murder is only a small sum of money (for them, hundreds of millions of dollars is small), they will adopt these kind of practices as a way of doing business. It's a gamble for them, and it seems to keep paying off. Just like Purdue Industries, who ruined generations of young people by flooding the streets with their "non addictive" Oxy-Contin. None of them are in jail either when in reality they were just massive drug dealers.

All I can say is Dupont should be shut down completely for this disaster. It doesnt matter what "good" the company does when it is responsible for this level of destruction. Just unbelievable they are still making these chemicals... Can almost guarantee this show will piss you off but I strongly urge you watch it. It changed my life about using Teflon in anything. Saying this is a travesty is a vast understatement... Crikey

Regardless of any facts involving the companies here you can see how much danger we are in and the corruption involved. Taken off Netflix just shows the corruption there also.

This Chemical is in ALL our blood, in the plants in the animals and as long as it's a BIG GREEDY MONEY CORPORATION nothing bad happens to them. They get a slap on the hand, throw a few dollars at the problem and keep on going. Just proof that this world SUCKS and the only one looking out for you and your family is YOU! And your still screwed cause this poison is in your blood already, but as long as your food don't stick to the pan, the government says it's A-OK! Because switching out this chemical would be too expensive for Dupont and they are just gonna switch it with another toxic chemical anyway. God HELP US! Because No ONE ELSE is Going to. :(

I was scrolling through my Facebook yesterday when I saw a preview for Dark Waters. I'm looked up who it was based on because I was intrigued . Needless to say 1 NY Times article and this documentary. Has me repeating it to anyone who will listen. The sheer negligence of blatant disregard for human life on the companies involved is disgusting to say the least. My daughter who is 10 was watching this and her face when she realized what we were watching affected her as well was heart breaking. Great documentary. Good enough you had a 10 year old with attention issues to sit and watch.

As a former resident of Parkersburg, I always heard people talk about the danger of the chemicals produced and disposed of by the multiple plants in the area but never thought much of it because I never had more than hearsay. This documentary is excellent investigative journalism and exposes how DuPont corporate's blasé attitude about toxic chemicals hurt their employees health and the health of surrounding communities. Im so glad this was produced and I hope it prompts government agencies to take more action in regard to unregulated and potentially dangerous chemicals.
