Description
Content Description from John Pilger's website (http://johnpilger.com/videos/pyramid-lake-is-dying) :
"What happened to Lake Winnemucca is about to happen to one of the world’s last great and beautiful inland seas… It’s a story that not only tells again the plight of the American Indian… The story of Pyramid Lake is much more universal than that, for it tells very simply what we all achieve when we knowingly and culpably destroy the partnership between man and nature."
