Cheney's Fracking "Halliburton Loophole" economistsview
Another Bush administration gift that keeps on giving:
Public
fears are growing about contamination of drinking-water supplies from
the chemicals used in fracking and from the methane gas itself. Field
tests show that those worries are not unfounded. ... Yet states have let
companies proceed without adequate regulations.

The
story of the fight over hydraulic fracturing--hydrofracking or
"fracking"--for natural gas in New York contains some familiar villains,
it turns out. It was Dick Cheney's Halliburton that discovered the
technique, and Cheney's pressure that got it approved by the EPA.
Cuomo's Cheney-Style "Transparency" on Fracking huffpost
Less
than a year later, Governor Cuomo's 18-member fracking advisory panel
sits in secret. It's during closed door sessions that essential
decisions about the state's future are being negotiated by a handful of
people, many of them strongly self-interested and industry-biased.

I
met a woman recently who can light her tap water on fire. She told me
that a natural gas company had built a drilling station on her ranch and
after a year or so her dogs stopped drinking the tap water she put in
their dishes.
Dick Cheney's Legacy of Fracking America to Death
Thanks
to Cheney, a bill was passed when he was vice president that exempted
fossil fuel companies engaged in fracking from virtually any oversight -
and exempted them from nearly all environmental laws and regulations.

Fracking
is the practice which was revealed in the HBO special "Gasland." If you
missed it, desperate farmers and other land-owners in West Virginia and
Pennsylvania have already succumbed to Halliburton's monetary offer to
utilize the mineral rights on their land... no oversight by the E.P.A.,
none of the nearly 600 poisonous chemicals need be disclosed despite the
human cost in fatal illness.

Peek or Peekaboo - Crude Oil Still Sucks
Henry
Ford originally made his cars to run on ethanol, so farmers could
create their own fuel. (He saw farmers really as his customers
originally, since nearly all of us were farmers).
Along comes John D. Rockefeller, who wants people to use oil. He provides money to the anti-alcohol movement in order to make Prohibition a reality, and stop the ethanol fuel industry and promote the use of fossil fuels
The documentary is called: Fuel by: Josh Tickell.
"I am against Prohibition because it has set the cause of temperence
back twenty years; because it has substituted an ineffective campaign of
force for an effective campaign of education; because it has replaced
comparatively uninjurious light wines and beers with the worst kind of
hard liquor and bad liquor; because it has increased drinking not only
among men but has extended drinking to women and even children."
-- William Randolph Hearst,
initially a supporter of Prohibition,
explaining his change of mind in 1929.

Big Energy is putting us at big risk April 11, 2012Fracking is now suspected of causing earthquakes according to the USGS. There is enough evidence for a direct correlation between fracking injection wells and increased siesmic activity in the area along faults. Fracking increases the siesmic activity in areas where there has been very little activity for many hundreds of years. This brings up an alarming reality regarding fracking and nuclear power facilities. Most nuclear facilities are designed with the pre fracking data regarding earthquake resistance. After fracking data is now a factor to consider when nuclear power plants are concerned. These nuclear facilities are at a disadvantage to thier design criteria at the time. The continuance of fracking in these sensitive areas puts the facility at risk, and the country, and the planet. With Fukishima still playing out its deadly dance we are risking the failure of our own nuclear facilities in our own country by the insistance on using this risky technology. Not to mention the chemical contamination of our environment with the direct injection of fluid that ultimatley lubricates our faults to facilitate the earthquakes that threaten us all, even the 1 percent. The North Anna Plant was affected by the recent 5.8 earthquake that was probably caused by fracking, its back up syatems worked and averted a catastraphe this time. Why are we letting big energy put us at big risk....
