Don't allow fracking to start in the UK
Dear Chancellor,
Don't say yes to fracking in the UK and don't give tax incentives to encourage its development.
Don't say yes to fracking in the UK and don't give tax incentives to encourage its development.
Why is this important?
I've been concerned about fracking ever since I saw the "Gaslands" film which showed what individual American citizens had experienced after allowing the gas companies to drill on their land. It's the chemicals they use with high pressure water jets to fracture the earth underground, that do the damage, and the film showed how the poison gets into the ground water, animals died and people became chronically ill and had no redress whatsoever in the States. We cannot allow this to happen to our precious water supplies in the UK.
