UK Taxpapyers to fund hundreds of boreholes across the country.

Farcical excercise to be undertaken by the British Geological Society to prove ( or as they suggest, 'otherwise' ) the existence or non-existence of pollution. Are they kidding!

Fracking - A list of those harmed.

All too often one or two aspects ( proven ) of the fracking process that appeal to the sensationalist UK press have tended to distract us. These would include flaming taps ( documented ), airborne methane ( excessive levels ), earthquakes ( literally thousands in the US – documented ) and more. What is not so often highlighted, is the real harm caused to individuals living in close proximity ( as over 15 million US citizens now do ) to frack sites.

 

Here is a comprehensive ( though not exhaustive ) list..........................

Hard to imagine in the tiny land mass of the UK is it not?

UK - The end of Scotland as we know it?

Complete idiocy ( what price tourism, or the natural environment for that matter ) and no the price of domestic gas will not come down ( Govt's own report refers ) and yes the jobs created will be a drop in the ocean and mostly highly unhealthy. Yes of course to a rising share price ( for as long as the lie lasts ) and board positions all round for ministers on side.

UK - Govt to establish network of fracking colleges.

As if the mountains of data relating to fracking currently available worldwide were not enough the Cameron government are to set up a national network of so called 'fracking colleges'. Paid for by the very people who will suffer directly.

Fracking - a total financial fraud.

Ponzi schemes have nothing on the fracking fraud now being visited on millions of citizens world-wide. Beggars belief.

Denton, Texas says NO to fracking. Texas?!!!

At last, a relatively small town in TEXAS has voted against fracking. Sign of the times, This, don't forget is a population situated right on the edge of the so called Barnett Shale 'play'. Lots of money floating around on the methane drenched airwaves no doubt but locals are clearly getting to grips with this now. Good.
