The proof that Fracking' causes earthquakes and has - God knows what - other dangerous and probably irreversible ecological consequences, is becoming more incontrovertible by the day.

None of us - no matter of which political persuasion - can stand by and let greedy bastard people in positions of authority and privilege, continue to cause future ecological disasters for the sake of profit now.

These selfish greedy bastards do not CARE what future damage they will cause by this process just as long as it makes them colossal amounts of money so that they can continue to live 'The Good Life' now. As usual, with ALL aspects of life, it will be us common people who pay for their greed.

You cannot FECK with nature.

Everyone who studied science and chemistry at school will know that Sodium explodes once in contact with water, and that it is stored safely in mineral oil.

Imagine a tall beaker. The bottom third is full of sodium, the middle third is mineral oil, and the top third is water. ALL SAFE while ever it is undisturbed.

Then let some idiot come along and suck up all the oil through the water layer leaving the sodium now in full contact with the water -- BOOM.

Now, I'm not saying this is LITERALLY (or chemically) what happens with Fracking - just that the cretinous principle is the same.

THEY MUST BE STOPPED.
