Support PFAS-free water. You’re invited to a free screening of No Defense: The U.S. Military’s War on Water.

Screening of No Defense: The U.S. Military’s War on Water followed by a panel discussion with the filmmaker and people featured in the film. Details about the panel below. 

The Great Lakes PFAS Action Network is hosting a virtual, seven day screening of the award winning documentary film, No Defense, The U.S. Military’s War on Water, by Pulitzer Prize winner Sara Ganim, to raise awareness and prompt action on the PFAS crisis occurring across the Great Lakes region. 

The documentary tells the story of PFAS contamination in the small Michigan community of Oscoda. Over a decade ago, PFAS contamination from the former Wurtsmith Air Force Base was discovered there, leaching into ground and surface water, posing an imminent threat to people’s drinking water and their health. 

We encourage you to join or organize a group watch party to view the film! After you watch, join the discussion on Twitter (@Ecology_Center) by describing your reaction to the film. Tell us why you deserve PFAS-free water!
