You might be wondering what coal seam gas has to do with learning, but for ordinary Australian, and now film maker Dayne Pratzky, the Frackman, it's become a major issue. Australia is currently experiencing a "gas rush", and when the Queensland Gas Company arrived at Dayne Pratzky's home to inform him that drilling for coal seam gas was about to commence on his property, a battle started that would see Dayne become a global activist fighting against a multi-billion dollar industry. Dayne learnt much about the coal seam gas industry, but also about himself, and what people can do to help themselves in the face of seemingly insurmountable tasks. This is a message for all Australians, with particular focus on our next generations.
