If you or a friend has netflix, one of the instant play movies is "If a tree falls," a documentary about the Earth Liberation Front: 

"Filmmakers Marshall Curry and Sam Cullman examine the case of Daniel McGowan, a member of the radical environmental group Earth Liberation Front who was arrested for committing arson against two Oregon timber companies. Dissecting ELF's self-described use of "economic sabotage" to stop deforestation and other damage to the planet, the film also explores the ramifications of the FBI's decision to classify them as terrorists."

Another is "Homeland: Four Portraits of Native Action,"  
"Follow the inspiring stories of five courageous Native American activists battling to defend their vulnerable land and people against wildly unsafe environmental hazards, including methane  gas wells, oil drilling, uranium mining and industrial waste. Filled with beautifully composed images of spectacular landscapes, this documentary features noted activist Winona LaDuke urging viewers to abandon destruction and embrace respect."

And always, there are the videos posted on YouTube by John Bolenbaugh, the whistleblower on Enridge, a competitor of TransCanada (XL Pipeline) for covering up tar sand oil spills in the Kalamazoo River in Michigan.  He documents the terrible health damages:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zD2hMbr3ers&feature=related  Mr. Bolenbaugh came all the way to Austin a few months ago to testify against XL Pipeline at the so-called State Department hearing (which turned out to be conducted by a subcontractor for TransCanada).
