Gasland: A film by Josh Fox

New York Residents Against Drilling (NYRAD) is a grassroots network of local
residents who are opposed to unconventional gas development in New York
State.

Horizontal hydraulic fracturing threatens our land, air, and water,
jeopardizing the economic and physical health of our communities. Thousands
of wells, many miles of pipelines, and large noisy compressor stations could
turn our rural communities into giant industrial zones.

Therefore, we are joining together to:

  - educate ourselves and our neighbors about the long-term negative
  economic, environmental, health, and community impacts of gas extraction by
  hydraulic fracturing;
  - advocate for legislation to safeguard our communities from these
  threats;
  - encourage the development of alternative, green, sustainable energy
  sources;

We believe that all people have a right to clean air and pure water, and
that it is our duty to preserve and protect the natural, scenic, historic,
and commercial assets of this beautiful state we live in, for ourselves and
future generations.
