Documentarian Josh Fox is making the rounds in anticipation of the HBO premiere of “Gasland Part II,” the follow-up to 2010’s oscar-nominated (and highly controversial) “Gasland.”
Fox joined the Daily Show’s John Oliver to talk about the upcoming film, which explores the impacts of fracking and the natural gas industry on public health and the environment. His appearance started with a clip from the documentary, which shows a man lighting a hose on fire connected to a well contaminated with methane.
