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.

Low light shot of Khaleesi (left) and Ferox. Though not really by choice of Ferox, they've become much closer over the last couple of weeks. Mostly because Khaleesi was in heat, and would constantly follow Ferox around wherever he went (and he would occasionally run away in sheer desperation), but also because our attention was on Yamah a lot, and they had pretty much no choice but to be together.
This shot would have been unthinkable just a few weeks ago, whereas now we've caught her grooming him :)
Temporarily out of fences, so no HFF today, but that wil be remedied asap :)
This was the scene inside the Ohio Statehouse on June 17th, 2012 as various groups from Ohio and surrounding states converged to discuss issues related to, and actions and tactics to use against, the method of gas drilling known as hydraulic fracturing (fracking), which is EXTREMELY harmful to both the environment and the health and economic well-being of people that have the misfortune of living anywhere near it.

Had a good bike today, from Ventura to Santa Barbara.
Was on the lookout for feathers and found some along the way.
Cheers.
