''Burning the Future: Coal in America'' is a 2008 documentary film produced and directed by David Novack. The film focuses on the impacts of mountaintop mining in the Appalachians, where mountain ridges are scraped away by heavy machinery to access coal seams below, a process that is cheaper and faster than traditional mining methods but is damaging to the environment. Some environmental problems discussed in the film include disfigured mountain ranges, extinct plant and animal species, toxic groundwater, and increased flooding.〔(Burning the Future: Coal in America )〕 The film's run time is 89 minutes. The Executive Producer of the film is CJ Follini, Founder and CEO of the former Gun For Hire Production Studios.〔TAKE 2: FILM FIRM EXPANDS IN VILLAGE; GUN FOR HIRE LEASES MORE SPACE AS DEMAND GROWS FASTER THAN EXPECTED.
