Separating oil and gas TV fact from fiction in ‘Landman’, with Debbie Gordon and Lucy Stone

from Climate Curious

Is the show ‘Landman’ just slick fossil fuel promotion? Climate Curious separates fact from fiction when it comes to the narratives pushed in Taylor Sheridan’s new drama. With help from senior principal in RMI’s Climate Intelligence Program, Debbie Gordon, as well as Executive Director of Climate Spring, Lucy Stone, we unpack the environmental impacts the show conveniently leaves out, from ignored methane emissions from oil pumping, to orphaned wells and the impact that has on communities left behind, as well as the possible lag between pop culture and the climate realities we are living in today.Enjoyed this conversation?
