Not with you, just wondering if they carried out fracking in any of the USAs areas of natural beauty or in one of their national parks

Just heard a report on the news about the slashing of feed in tariff rates for homeowners with solar panels by up to 90%, when questioned why the solar industry can't stand on its own without subsidies, the reply was that subsidies for fossil and nuclear fuel have been increased to eye watering levels, while Green Energy subsidies have been reduced the goal posts have been moved yet again for the thousands of homeowners who invested in this as a way of producing greener energy and maybe making profit, I guess it's only big business that is allowed make a profit off the back of subsidies.

I was meaning how it became a grand canyon ... perhaps not appropriate.

I'm not a supporter of fracking, not at all. I don't feel enough is known about the potential consequences, but I would much rather it was trialled in a low population density area than one heavily populated.
