Follow up: fracking coffee house notes and resources
2013 April 18, by Sherwin Arnott
Thank you to everyone that came out for our coffee house discussion on Fracking on Tuesday night. I am always energized by the wisdom and energy in the room at these events. We’re not alone in calling for a moratorium on Fracking in BC. 62% of Canadians are opposed to fracking, until we know more. I said I would post some links and resources, so here they are:
- David Suzuki documentary: Shattered Ground
- Fort Nelson First Nations opposed to water licenses for fracking
- Fracking Up Our Water, Hydro Power and Climate: BC’s reckless pursuit of shale gas [PDF]
- Fracking the Future: How Unconventional Gas Threatens our Water, Health, and Climate (report) and [the PDF]
- Failure rates of fracking wells
- Key NASA indicators of global warming
- Instance of radioactive contamination of drinking water by fracking
- News on Alberta court case
- Blog post by me from a 2011 panel on fracking
- National Council of Canadians fracking resources
