There is a great deal of local opposition, supported from other areas of the UK against shale fracking. Near Blackpool/Preston two sites were up for planning permission andit has been refused, locally, nationally we we will see. There is Gov. support for it, provided it's not near "them" I suspect.

Three wells were being burned off here, next to our family farm in Pennsylvania. I was trying here to obscure the flares themselves behind the trees so that the camera could bring out the reflected light on the trees. I was happier with results of these pictures than most of the other attempts.

Mit Tempo 120 auf Bundesautobahnen und Tempo 80 auf Außerortsstraßen, eingeführt zum Januar 2024, könnten bis 2030 in Summe rund 47 Millionen Tonnen CO2-Äquivalente eingespart werden, so Messner. Damit könnte die Klimaschutzlücke im Verkehr um rund ein Sechstel geschlossen werden. (dpa/cze)

S'avvicina lentamente
con incedere elegante,
ha l'aspetto trasognato,
malinconico ed assente
non si sa da dove vien
ne dove và
chi mai sarà
quel'uomo in frack.

Camp Frack mobilised over 100 climate activists and local residents against plans by Cuadrilla Resources to drill for shale gas in Lancashire, UK.
"Camp Frack", named after "fracking", the process of pumping vast quantities of water underground and fracturing rocks with chemicals to release shale gas, set up outside the Lancashire village of Banks, close to a drilling rig that Cuadrilla Resources is using to drill up to 3.5km deep.
Environmentalists have argued that the "fracking" process is inherently risky. In the US, where shale gas is being hailed by industry as a potential substitute for oil, fears have been raised about the effect of the chemicals used, explosions, links with seismic activity and allegations of illness. A Cornell University study also concluded that greenhouse gas emissions from shale gas are higher than those for coal.

Fracking: An Environmental Debate
with Edward Cross & Joe Spease
Monday, March 5, 2012 7:30 p.m.
at the Dole Institute
Hydraulic fracturing is a procedure that can increase the flow of oil or gas from a well. It is done by pumping liquids down a well into subsurface rock units under pressures that are high enough to fracture the rock. The goal is to create a network of interconnected fractures that will serve as pore spaces for the movement of oil and natural gas to the well bore.
Edward Cross serves as President of the Kansas Independent Oil & Gas Association (KIOGA) where he oversees all KIOGA business activities and programs. He is responsible for public policy advocacy and interaction with external stakeholders including elected officials, regulators, government decision-makers, and community thought-leaders. At KIOGA, Cross is director of staff, editor of the Association’s publications, serves as an industry spokesperson to media outlets and other forums, and is an industry advocate as a registered legislative agent. On behalf of KIOGA members, Cross lobbies in both Topeka and Washington, D.C.
Joe Spease is CEO of WindSoHy, an energy company, based in Kansas City, developing wind/Compressed Air Energy Storage (CAES) projects, wind/hydrogen (H2) projects, solar projects, and biomass/syngas projects. This follows his work as President of Pristine Power where he was responsible for developing large wind, solar, and hydrogen projects. Spease’s leadership in the field of renewable energy has taken many forms. He has published articles on wind, Compressed Air Energy Storage (CAES), hydrogen, and solar power, and provided frequent expert testimony on various energy-related issues before legislative committees and as a guest speaker at energy forums and conferences. He is Chairman of the Hydraulic Fracturing Committee for the Kansas Sierra Club and works to get regulations to prevent environmental damage from fracking.
