Ban Frack Advocacy Trip on Delaware River
Friends of Brook park groups went to see for themselves the glory and beauty of this waterway! And the importance of the need to BAN fracking, not merely "regulate" it better.

These pumpjacks are ubiquitous in the West Kern oilfields, pulling heavy crude oil to the surface from wells "stimulated" by fracking or cyclic steam injection. Pumpjacks are sometimes called "donkeys" or "nodding donkeys." I came across a little guide to other nicknames, including one I really like: "thirsty birds."
They are too many to count as you drive through the oil fields, an impression reinforced when you take a look at the state's "well finder map."
This spot is about 38 miles west-northwest of downtown Bakersfield and just 10 miles west of Interstate 5. This area -- on the western fringe of the San Joaquin Valley -- is the source of much of the crude petroleum Californians use. There's some irony for me in that nearly ceaseless river of traffic flowing past so close to these oil fields but so far from any idea of all the costs involved in making our most popular form of mobility possible.

Press Conference on Fracking by Joe Andrucyk at Governor’s Reception Room, 100 State Circle, Annapolis MD 21401
A charming protester ... with words by drypics.
This whole worldwide fracking business entails some unknowns about water pollution and risks might be taken. I found the protesters very well informed and charming people ... and the risks unsettling!
The proposed INEOS Fracking site will be situated where the tracks through the field end at the treeline. The hedgerows along the narrow Common Road on the right. The visual impact of the proposed site will be clearly visible to residents living on Serlby Lane, Harthill.
