After receiving an offer of $100,000 for the natural gas drilling rights to his property, filmmaker Josh Fox travels across the country to investigate the potential hazards. What he discovers is shocking: contaminated groundwater that bubbles and hisses, residents suffering from chronic illnesses, and—perhaps most disturbingly—flammable tap water. They're all consequences of a rapidly expanding drilling campaign that's guaranteeing unsuspecting landowners a quick and easy payoff, but leaving behind a burning trail of secrets, lies and catastrophic environmental damage. Welcome to Gasland.
