all the sad and scary documentaries

The film GasLand opens with the filmmaker saying that he is not a pessimist, that he has always believed in people, and that we will somehow figure it out before we destroy what we love most.

I, too, am not a pessimist. I believe that there is an intrinsic goodness in most people, and that we can make a difference. But watching GasLand and other documentaries of its type, I find myself just so sad and hopeless.
