definitely.
I don't really like the attacks against the film, how they are 
calling for censoring it(like by Josh Fox, director of Gas Land). I 
did find someone 
defending the film here:

I agree with him, in that the film was to start discussion, and it's 
not up to the filmmakers to give us solutions. But instead, the 
critics attack the filmmakers and now we aren't having discussion 
about solutions. Barf.
