The Chemical Industry At Large
PBS Trade Secrets Documentary

Just discovered this through a class on environmental and public health policy. It's a bit older (2001) but still valid.
This documentary shows why industry needs some sort of regulation when morality does not outweigh profit.
Man-made chemicals generally persist, are not easily broken down (because they're not natural), and bioaccumulate up the food chain. Many of them are toxic or carcinogenic ate even low exposures.
