Directly across from Read's Landing are lovely sand dunes. People would boat on the Mississippi, pull up here and camp. Until now. The Chippewa River sand which plugs up the river and makes Lake Pepin is perfect for mixing with toxic chemicals and injecting into Pennsylvania's ground water to get out natural gas which is so cheap they flare it off in North Dakota.

An anti fracking protestor occupies a tripod to block the road at Cuadrilla's drilling site, Balcombe, Sussex.
From the J Henry Fair photo exhibit at the 2011 Earth Day Fair at Grand Central. A lot of frack sites cannot be seen from regular roads because the drilling usually takes place in private lands where the owners are offered huge sums of money to allow the drilling to take place. What they usually don't realize is that the environmental after effects are not as safe as they were told. Most of the drilling also takes place in areas where there is very little economic opportunity so people jump at the chance to make money and not think of the consequences. Educate yourself and write your local congressman or senator because new laws are being re-visited everyday and in New York, it is being reviewed whether to allow it to be introduced into the state. Only someone in local government can stop this but the information on it was and is scarce. Also check out the brief videos on the documentary Gasland online and see the very real threat to your drinking water and if you think you can't be affected think again. It has been such a lucrative business that other companies are thinking of starting to drill in other countries as well.
