Description

  • A new documentary infarction, A RIVER OF WASTE exposes a huge health scandal and the environment in our modern industrial system of meat and poultry production. Some scientists have gone so far as to call the condemned current factory farm practices as "mini Chernobyls." In US and elsewhere, the meat industry and poultry is dominated by dangerous uses of arsenic, antibiotics, growth hormones and by the dumping of large amounts of sewage in fragile waterways and environments. The film documents the great catastrophic impact on the environment and public health as well as focuses on the individual lives damaged and destroyed.
