Incredibili quantità di sostanze tossiche vengono sepolte nelle zone collinose del Kentucky. Responsabile di tale scempio è l'opportunista senza scrupoli Orin Hammer. Il losco individuo è a capo di una vera e propria organizzazione criminale. L'ambientalista Jack Taggart gli dichiara guerra. Hammer e la sua banda sono inoltre sospettati di un omicidio. Si sono infatti resi responsabili dell'omicidio di un ex collega di Jack. Se nessuno tenterà di fermarli l'intero patrimonio naturalistico dello stato americano verrà completamente distrutto.
