Earth Day<\/h2>\n

The Gulf Disaster: Five Years Later<\/strong>
\nCome Hell or High Water ends just as the BP disaster begins, in April 2010. Off screen, filmmaker Leah Mahan and Turkey Creek’s Derrick Evans went the following month to BAVC’s Producers Institute for New Media Technologies to work with the Gulf Coast Fund and a team of creative experts to build\u00a0BridgeTheGulfProject.org<\/a>. A few months later, Bridge The Gulf partnered with the Natural Resources Defense Council and StoryCorps on a project called\u00a0Stories from the Gulf<\/a>, about people living through the disaster. This week, NRDC’s onEarth is releasing a four-part follow up to that project:\u00a0THE GULF DISASTER: FIVE YEARS LATER<\/a>.<\/p>\n
