Re: Fracking
UJ they started Fracking not 5 miles from me on the far edge of "The Moss" a peat moss, in 2009 it was halted in 2011 while council thought about it they did and said No. They will get their own way in the end, but you know the crack on my back patio, thats when it started moving, perhaps a connection there, BTW it's effects were felt as far away as Blackpool 50mls apparently.10-07-2013, 02:02 PM

But from afar I can say we need to do something, this may or may not be the thing to do.
Do you always have cast iron opinions about things you know little about ? I tend to wait until I have experience or have done some research about things.

Re: Fracking
about 15 years ago we had a minor earth tremour which damaged my garden wall and there was a slight crack across the concrete, it never altered till about 3/4 years ago when it started to widen. I'd never heard of fracking, seems it started 2009, till it was suspended in 2011, they applied to reopen it either end of last year or early this not sure which cos there's so much going on round here you lose track, Anyhow according to the paper it was suspended cos of fears to the house foundations fairly close by (probably about a mile away), anyhow the coucil refused to grant permission. They also want to do open cast mining not far away from that. Oh yes and they'd like a windfarm too. Now I'm not a geologist nor do I hold any politcal persuasion, I just don't want the Frackin in my area, just in case.10-07-2013, 03:36 PM

Perhaps nuclear is the best way to go ?
