In The Green Death, The Doctor and sidekick Jo go to Llanfairfach in Wales with the Brigadier to investigate a death involving a mine worker who is covered in a green slime. Upon their arrival, Jo becomes involved with Professor Cliff Jones, a hippy who is against the use of fossil fuels, fighting against a corporate conglomerate who is taking control of the world's fuel sources.
When another mine worker dies because of this mysterious green death, The Doctor enters the mine to find a race of giant worms making this green excrement which is deadly to all who come in contact with it. Finding that these giant maggots are an unnatural by-product of a local industry, Global Chemicals, whose toxic waste is dumped into the mine, he discovers plans to eradicate the creatures to cover up the toxic waste dumping. When explosives drive the maggots up to the surface, the army is called in to stop the maggots, to no avail.
The Doctor finds out that there is more to Global Chemicals, with a mastermind behind the cover-ups. However, it is not a person, but rather a computer with plans for world domination.
