Fracking Blackpool

I listened. There was a spokesman from the drilling company saying that the Lancashire shale gas field appears so rich that it appears that drilling down, and not sideways, will produce a good yield for a well.(seemingly good news)

The bad news - if the shale is so very profitable they are likely to want more wells.

Well they do say position is everything.;):D:D
 
Well everyone knows how committed to the environment the French are after all 78% of their power comes from Nuclear, the highest percentage of any country in the world. Having 59 nuclear power stations is not enough, they are building some more. Perhaps they don't need fracking gas
 
Fracking causes earthquakes in unexpected places
DutchNews.nl - Earthquake hits Nijmegen
"The earthquake which shook Nijmegen and its surroundings on Thursday night was one of the strongest to hit the Netherlands over the past 100 years, the Telegraaf reports.

The quake, measuring 4.5 on the Richter scale, hit at around 21.00 hours. No-one was hurt and there are no reports of damage but the tremors were felt as far away as Utrecht.

The epicentre was in Germany.

The strongest quake to hit the Netherlands in the past 100 years was in 1992, when an earthquake measuring 5.8 on the Richter scale hit Roermond.

Quakes normally take place in the south of the country but also happen in Groningen province as the land settles following natural gas extraction"

Who says so?
What are you trying to tell us,we're all floating on a cloud of gas and if we extract it we'll all disappear down a large hole?
The gas is extracted from a porous but solid medium,taking millions of coal out and leaving the mine tunnels open hasn't caused Accrington to disappear yet!
Although some would say- no we won't go into that.

Here are a few more - so don't comment negatively until you have read about the subject.

Unless you are aware that Holland has an oilfield:rolleyes:, the gas extracted is from shale, which requires fracking

I have read the links and about the subject!
Perhaps I should have said ' Who says so who has a credible opinion worth reading'.
The Greanville Post(What the System doesn't want you to know).A conspiracy site 'focusing on the infotainment world'! I think not.
The Stuart Smith Blog? A lawyer, not a scientist.I think not.
Aspen-first paragraph says,in brief,'large earthquakes in Virginia and Colarado AREN'T typically associated with hydraulic fracturing.
So a 4.5 in the Netherlands probably has nothing to do with fracking, according to one of your sources.
So the ground settles a bit, it often did after mining,no real problem.

So you want the opinion of a geologist? - find it here
OpEdNews - Podcast: Geologist Scott Ausbrooks on Fracking/Earthquake connection
Scott led a team that discovered a connection between Fracking disposal wells and earthquakes. "

PS not all geologists agree - some are employed by the gas industry;)

Quotes from his interviews-
'The earthquake connection is through disposal wells. Fracking can be done without disposal wells.'
'earthquakes in Arcansas near a quarry'.
'Filling a reservoir can set it off'.
A picture of some mud with cracks in it-earthquake damage? For heavens sake, it's got FOOTMARKS in it-perhaps a VERY heavy person caused it.
Hardly the end of the world.

Your inference that any geologists who don't agree with your theory are employed by the gas industry diminishes your argument.
 
From the same news source I believe.

Earthquake in the Netherlands

The most telling comment :- The earthquake took place at a depth of 7 km, which according to seismologists at KNMI is not deep. It is still unclear what caused the earthquake, but it seems to be a natural cause.

Until confirmation, the accusation of fracking being responsible would appear invalid & yes I was aware of the Dutch oil fields. Living just 50 minutes from the Dutch Border I tend to spend a fair bit of time in Holland.

In Iceland yesterday they created about 100 earthquakes ( less than Magnitude 2) in 4 hours at the hydrothermal plant without problems.

That's what they want you to think.

There'll be riots afore Michaelmas.

Mark my words.

Israeli bankers have been sending planes, dropping bombs containing fetal blood into Icelandic air space. Targeting the countries volcanoes.

The chemical reaction this brought about, causing the volcanoes to explode, and send microscopic ash high into the atmosphere, and fall, because of known weather conditions, on western Europe.

It's a well known fact that the lungs of pre-adult Afro-Caribbeans cannot function sufficently when aggravated by pumice ash particles. This causes a chemical reaction in the brain, and as the lungs try to cope, this leads to severe anti-social psycosis.

In certain summer weather conditions, this reaction will appear in many such young people, and massive civil unrest could ensue.

The finaciers will profit fron the chaos caused, by charging western governments exorbitant interest rates, as they try to rectify the situation, by pumping money they don't have, into measures to rectify the problem, such as increased police and civil guard forces.
