A Must Watch Documentary

It is through the eyes of chief engineer and whistleblower Richard Parks and the surrounding community that the near-disaster at Pennsylvania’s Three Mile Island nuclear power facility is examined in this dramatic four-part documentary series, according to a published article in First Showing.

An insider’s account of the events, debates, and long-term ramifications of the worst nuclear disaster in U.S. history is provided here. The show’s executive producer explains: “In my opinion, Meltdown’s lessons may be applied much beyond the events of 1979. The modest acts of valor that altered the course of history are revealed even as we uncover the intricate network of corporate greed that almost led to our radioactive catastrophe. As we address the present climate and energy problems, we must learn from the Three Mile Island accident.” I really hope that films like this one might have an impact and begin to alter our culture’s tendency toward greed.
