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.

Max Keiser takes a little getting used to but he hit's the nail right on the head. If you watch nothing else today, do watch just the first half of this presentation...................

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.
