The largest natural gas drilling boom in history is sweeping across the United States and is headed for North Carolina – Moore, Lee and Chatham Counties to be exact -- where state geologists say there is an abundance of natural gas -- enough to make North Carolina self-sufficient for 40 years!  A new Halliburton-developed drilling technology called -- horizontal drilling and hydraulic facturing ["fracking"] -- has unlocked a "Saudia Arabia of natural gas" just beneath us.  But with potential rewards, come significant risks.  Is fracking safe?  That’s the question filmmaker / landowner Josh Fox wants to know when he’s asked to sell his mineral rights and lease his land for drilling. In search of the answer, Fox embarks on a cross-country odyssey and uncovers a trail of secrets, lies and contamination.  Part verité travelogue, part expose, part mystery, part showdown, part bluegrass banjo meltdown… an Oscar-nominated documentary and 2010 Sundance Film Festival winner, will challenge you to ask the same question – Is it safe? Panel Discussion to follow.
