The exploitation of natural resources in my country has been a constant as he wants to grow corn without sowing first.

In recent years, natural gas became popular in my country, saying it was cheaper … And yes, 10 years ago it was cheaper. Today is bankrupt many households.

I was writing a comment in a berkeley blog about pollution in the “Golfo de Mexico” by the gas company. and the experts came to the CONCLUSION that will not stop until the desasttre irreversible.

This world is Terrifying… It´s a shame

Any advice/assistance would be welcome, the issue addressed is highly relevant to a community in Susquehanna County (PA) that I am affiliated with. Thanks! Martha

We here in the Upper Delaware River watershed are at “ground zero”, with forces on both sides of the issue digging in their heels. While the efforts of many grassroots organization to get the word out has intensified and is helping to raise public awareness, the unlimited resources of the gas industry are stacked against such groups. Your study presents environmental and economic impacts that highlight the REAL costs of gas drilling. It seems incredible to me that there has been such a rush to drill, when not even one of these impacts have been seriously considered by the various governmental agencies that are charged to oversee such activities.
