Campaigning against Fracking within 2 Km of Chester Zoo

The Secretary of State for Communities and Local Government is to decide Cuadrilla’s appeals against the refusal of planning permission for fracking at two sites near Blackpool.

 

The news came in letters today to the company and Lancashire County Council. They said the Secretary of State, Greg Clark, would rule on the appeals, instead of a planning inspector, as had been planned.

 

The letter said this was because the proposals were for shale gas and were regarded as “development of major importance”. They had “more than local significance”.

 

The letter, signed by Mark Boulton on behalf of Mr Clark, said the appeals raised “important or novel issues of development control and/or legal difficulties”.

"Frackfree group blocks access to well in North Jackson"

Published: Mon, October 15, 2012 @ 12:00 a.m.

NORTH JACKSON

 

About 40 demonstrators from Frackfree Mahoning Valley blockaded access to a horizontal fracturing well under construction in Jackson Township on Sunday.

 

The well is operated by Consol Energy, and the group says it is located within the environmentally protected area that surrounds the Meander Reservoir, which provides more than 200,000 people in the Mahoning Valley with drinking water.

 

Hydraulic fracturing, or fracking, is a process in which sand, water and chemicals are pumped into shale at high pressure to release natural gas and oil trapped within the rock thousands of feet underground.

 

The protesters blockaded access to the well pad for almost five hours, starting at 10:45 a.m., after which the blockade was ended, according to Sam Rubin, a member of the anti-fracking group.

 

The blockade took place without arrests or confrontation with workers or police, Rubin said.

 

Protesters were supported by people from across Ohio, who chanted, sang songs and listened to addresses by the Rev. Monica Baisley-Martin and Atty. Staughton Lind.

 

The action was organized under the banner of Frackfree Mahoning and Frackfree America.

 

According to 21 WFMJ-TV, The Vindicator’s broadcast partner, Consol Energy says safety, compliance and continuous improvement drive its operations. The company says it takes its operational footprint very seriously and has worked closely with the Ohio Department of Natural Resources and Environmental Protection Agency to obtain all necessary permits. That includes a floodplain permit to operate at the site.

 

Frackfree Mahoning Valley contends that fracking contaminates ground and surface water. They say that no matter the safety record of a company, wells fail, and over time, all wells break, becoming sources for water contamination.

 

Group members say the main objective is to see to the safety of families in the area.

 

This action comes just days before the Youngstown City Council is set to decide whether to sell mineral rights on city lands. The city may consider selling its mineral rights to raise more money for demolition and neighborhood improvement projects.

My comment:

 

Drilling one hole for oil and gas on leased property using composite concrete for encasement without injecting brine and other hazardous substances and fracturing the shale and extracting the oil and gas TO BE USED IN THE USA- YES.

 

Horizontally drilling many holes invading other people's property (including State-owned property such as Meander Reservoir and Beaver Creek State Park) and injecting brine and other hazardous substances causing pollution of groundwater (that will pollute Meander Reservoir, Beaver Creek and the Mahoning River) and then fracturing the shale and extracting the oil and gas TO BE USED IN FOREIGN COUNTRIES OTHER THAN THE USA- NO!!!

 

(And why are "landowners" not allowed to extract oil and gas on their own property for their own use or for starting their own business selling oil and gas to their community?- maybe because so-called "landowners" really don't own the land to begin with?)

 

"Don't be fooled"

 

It's all about THEIR $$$MONEY$$$ that they use to their advantage to control us.

OCCUPY DEMOCRACY, LONDON RECLAIM THE POWER & OTHER ACTIVISTS DELIVER ‘CARBON BUBBLE’ TO SHELL HQ.

 

Following Time to Act climate demonstration Occupy Democracy with Black Bloc supporting Climate Change activists instigate a civil disobedience Direct Action march. 500 protesters march on the headquarters of oil and gas multinational Shell.

 

During the march back from Shell HQ, whilst crossing Westminster bridge, an activist is arrested a placed in a Police van.

 

End of this section of shoot so let my guard down and situational awareness began to drift to the next section. I suspect those present (most were still in a side road) were in a simmiler frame of mind - professional targeting by the police. I accordingly found myself on the outside of the scrum!
