Webocumentary: 'Walking the Line' of the Southern Gas Corridor

This webdocumentary, produced by Counter Balance, Platform and Re:Common, presents the risks associated with the Euro-Caspian Mega Pipeline or Southern Gas Corridor. One of the biggest pipelines ever conceived, the corridor is supposed to stretch for 3500 kilometres from Azerbaijan to Italy and supply Europe with gas for many decades to come. Through vivid pictures, infographics and videos, the webdoc invites the public to walk along the pipeline – including in areas where the TAP project is planned – and have a look at the devastating consequences it could have for people and the environment.
