Democracy at work. 6,000 objectors stop a project aimed at securing of future energy for 64,000,000. ". True but your fully entitled to let them drill your back garden, cause your house to loose value, cause your roads to jam up with trucks, risk possible contamination of your water, risk subsidy to your house, have constant noise in your back garden for the needs of the 64 million! Calling people nimbys is easy when your not one of them!. That said thank heavens for sensible councillors who actually listened to their residents for once | |||

"Was this to do with the company applying for a license for fracking? It's been well documented in the States that there are huge ecological problems, to the extent it's been stopped for further investigation. I think a lot more research needs to be carried out into the impact of fracking ecologically, environmentally etc. "  | |||

"It will be appealed and overturned..... Thankfully because getting our oil from Middle East and gas from Russia is not an option I'm looking forward to!" . If it's overturned and it may be, that won't be the end for the people who live there who in the vast majority don't want it!. This myth of fracking independence is just that an utter myth, you'll still be buying gas from Russia and oil from the middle East. They have the ability to produce for a tenth of fracking costs... Like right now most oil frackers in the states are going bankrupt owing billions because they can't even get it out of the ground for 50 bucks a barrel unlike the Saudis who can do it for 3 bucks a barrel | |||

"*typed a bit too quick" Again there's very little proof. The UK are also a lot more stringent about what you can use. While I agree that we need to treat the ecology correctly we also have a burgeoning population with greater demand for power. We have to have a balance. It's laughable that so many people drive to the demonstrations to stop fracking. What's really causing the damage? | |||

"Oh and your statement that they've suspended fracking in the US is laughable. Why has crude etc fallen so much in price? Partly because fracking has meant that the US has become less dependent on OPEC. Ergo the Saudis are trying to push the price down by increasing production in an attempt to drive the frackers out of business. While it may be true that some oil and gas held in shale is currently too expensive to extract that could change in the future. " My understanding was that fracking had been suspended. However what I failed to include was that it wasn't country wide. There have been reports of damage to the water supplies, rivers etc which they are investigating. In Scotland our water does come from rivers, the mountains, into reservoirs so there is a possible effect of our ecology. Laughable or not, I repeat my assertion that further investigations need to be done in order to answer the questions that have arisen as a direct result of fracking in the States. Hadn't mankind done enough damage to the planet already? | |||

I don't want to see the planet fucked over but like I said it's about balance. | |||

Firstly I've been campaigning on fracking for 7 years!.
Let's get to the facts.
We don't get our water from ground water lol... Omg,I suggest you get your geologist back to university!
The fracking companies spend millions on "independent analysis" the governing bodies spend about 10k ... The frackers themselves admit that 1 in 45 well linings will fail, they just claim that hardly any pollution is caused by the well failure!.
Apart from toluene, benzine radioactive gases and elements are by-products of what your drilling and they all flow up with the gas/oil so they could contaminate, you've then got the over a thousand chemicals that the frackers add with the sand and water, that they won't even tell you what they are (proprietary company knowledge they claim)!
In the untied states all fracking sites are exempt from the clean air and water act, an act designed to give you err clean air and water, exactly why do you think there exempt from that bit of law!.
OK trucks... Two a day you say mmm
Well if the well is being serviced by two fucking trucks a day... I hardly think it's going to be saving the UK from outside gas.
I mean two trucks of gas a day.. We import 2.4 billion cubic metres of gas a year!.. That's a lot of trucks if you want to end our reliance on imports!
So let's think about these two trucks you claim are used a day!.
The average frack uses 4 million gallons of water, this water is highly contaminated once used!.
The average milk tanker holds what 5000 gallons? 4 million divided by 5000 equals 2 does it... Your maths is worse than mine!
Now let's get down to nitty gritty
The average frack well according to the frackers losses 80% of its original daily supply after one year, so if your getting 1000 cubic metres of gas a day after one year your down to 200 cubic metres a day, worse still they lose 25% of their quoted supply after only 2 months... So you have to drill drill drill with fracking, if you don't believe me just have a look at any fracking site on Google earth in Australia or the states, you'll see there's lots and lots and lots of baron old drill sites! Every time you drill you need more water and more trucks!... It's why fracking costs loads, on average fracked oil is 80-100 dollars a barrel to produce! The harder older sites jump to 150-200 dollars a barrel to produce, do you really really want a great supply of oil that costs that much when Saudi Arabia can produce and smash you into the ground with 3-5 dollar a barrel oil!
On another note you really have to know your shit when listening to oil companies because they exaggerate the truth to put it mildly, for instance you'll see wild claims by them off "enough gas in Lancashire to run the UK for a hundred years!".
They said the exact same in America about the Monterey basin.
They claimed 15 billion barrels of oil, the truth after getting the go ahead 600 million a 96% reduction, in fact the top three massive finds in the us were reduced by 80% to 98% of stated claimed reserves, so when they say there's enough oil under heathrow for the UK to be energy independent for a hundred years!! Trust me everybody who knows anything about fracking including the dozens of geologist I've talked to over the 7 years I've done it piss themselves laughing at the ridiculous stupid bollocks of those statements!.
It's a bit like a chap on the internet telling me they put "mud and water" in the gaps where the gas comes from... He knows because his friend is a geologist  | |||

It's about a small number of councillors worried they'll be replaced at the next election by voters whose main concern is the price of their home."In other words, democracy in action then? Unless someone thinks that councillors or politicians ever have anything other than self preservation in mind, that is?????? | |||

"In other words fuck everyone else in the world who produces anything that contaminates the environment of the plant if oil wells in Saudi contaminate their locality it does not matter we do live there. As long as my little plot is safe the rest of the world does not matter. If you want benefit from using products of the modern world you must be prepared to accept the pollution that may occur in production and not expect others to live with the pollution so you can avoid it. " . Well I was talking about fracking at a personal local level, as an environmentalist myself, I use as little products and fossil fuels as possible. If you want to get off the reliance on outside energy supplies the best way is to change your usage not get as bad as Saudi Arabia. The possibility of finding enough oil and gas for self reliance for say the next 30 years in this country is unbelievably small! | |||

The fracking decision should be based on facts not Nimby. ".Lol your jumping about from capitalism to communism... Let's just stick with the facts Fracking won't reduce costs because the price is fixed by the big suppliers, ie Saudi we've seen that in the last five years!. It's not proven safe, in fact in France they had a ban on their own state firm total from fracking in France until total could prove it safe(unlike us were volunteers and protesters have to prove it unsafe). Total have put 8 cases before French courts and have yet to prove to the court, it's a safe practise!. There are plenty of firms who would like to employ people with a more sustainable energy, you just have to encourage them instead of punishing them while making it really easy for the frackers! | |||

"We don't get our water from ground water lol... Omg,I suggest you get your geologist back to university We do get a large amount of our water during the summer months and dry periods of winter from groundwater there are various boreholes around the thames water and wessex water regions that i know of and other water companies will do this as well. they even have test boreholes to check levels and water quality before its pumped into the reservoirs before treatment and its been done for years i work in utilities and we even have to find out if there are any aquifers located in fields before we start digging in case of cross contamimation which may occur" And if you want beer that's drinkable, don't poison it irreprebleby by cracking. All our major breweries use boreholes, and a lot of industries whose products have direct contact with food. Once the poison is in the ground its not coming out, except in your water. The risks are far too high. | |||

So true!
Similarly to our best preserved Iron Age hill fort, where locals and the local council have battled to prevent the building of close to 200 executive homes at its base, in Oswestry. The government sees fit to over-rule the thousands of locals, councillors and experts who have requested that building is made elsewhere, not at the reported birthplace of King Arthur's Guinevere. It's 3,000 years old, a unique piece of Britain's history, and yet the government wants to build at its base.

Most homes do not have solar power, for example, so there's a huge market out there that could be developed, reducing our dependence upon fossil fuels for electricity etc. " Not really we survive in plenty of Conditions from the frozen north to the heat of the Sahara and the humidity of the Amazon jungle and that's just the primitive societies.

"Oh and your statement that they've suspended fracking in the US is laughable. Why has crude etc fallen so much in price? Partly because fracking has meant that the US has become less dependent on OPEC. Ergo the Saudis are trying to push the price down by increasing production in an attempt to drive the frackers out of business. While it may be true that some oil and gas held in shale is currently too expensive to extract that could change in the future. My understanding was that fracking had been suspended. However what I failed to include was that it wasn't country wide. There have been reports of damage to the water supplies, rivers etc which they are investigating. In Scotland our water does come from rivers, the mountains, into reservoirs so there is a possible effect of our ecology. Laughable or not, I repeat my assertion that further investigations need to be done in order to answer the questions that have arisen as a direct result of fracking in the States. Hadn't mankind done enough damage to the planet already? " Failing to Include it's not a country wide suspension is very misleading way to put it was it? "America suspends fracking" to back up your argument vs "some fracking operations in America suspended" Is very different | |||

You know after the great depression and ww2, it's exactly what they did, they spent big money on big infrastructure that 20 years later paid off big style!. Instead with cronie capitalism, what we got was big spending on bailing out companies like hsbc and Barclays and rbs and Goldman Sachs and ford and ibm and general motors, and instead of these companies that we saved paying out years later like the big infrastructure did, they threaten to fuck off to Ireland if we don't reduce their fucking tax bill. It's utterly outrageous, we've spent a trillion quid and we've got shit all to show for it? What irks me the most is despite the history of utter diabolical lieing and skull duggery that the petrochemical industry has shown throughout their history, people still think there all upright lovely chaps just dying to help out some locals with some jolly cheap gas | |||

This isn't about 'sensible' councillors, except in the self preservation sense.
It's about a small number of councillors worried they'll be replaced at the next election by voters whose main concern is the price of their home."It's called democracy. I'm not sure if they have made the best decision for either the country or their country but it was theirs to make and they listened to their electorate and made it. | |||

That is it's eaten food that eaten food which ate plankton and all those little things were contaminated so the build up is quite bad in the higher chain feeder.... Of course that's not bad it's not like humans are high chain feeders is it .
No it's not nearly like pacific star fish suddenly turning up with bizarre melting diseases, could be a total coincidence and I bet those nuclear industries are busy with endless studies to find out what the problem is.. | |||

The big thing with radiation is we can pick up a single atomic decay so it's always easy to find. Plus it depends on its half life etc what the isotope is etc what whether is of any significant danger. Heck you could use this for your planning spike the ground water around a Proposed frack site with a small amount of a radioactive but safe tracer and see did it turns up in any aquifer or water resource after a few months. | |||

"It's estimated that, if the whole country switched to LED bulbs in place of filament or so-called energy saving bulbs, the UK could save the need for several power stations - the technology is there and freely available... it really is a no-brainer. For my part, I use LED bulbs throughout my home and business premises. I also generate all my own 240v electricity with a photovoltaic array (even on overcast days) and sell back into the grid via FIT. I haven't had a utility bill in years. It's so simple I'm baffled why more people don't do it. I suppose they think because it's green that it's just for low-life hippy drop outs. Maybe they feel threatened by the idea of actually bothering to use their brains and think things through - much easier to keep running with the crowd and keep paying the bills. It's an all too prevalent attitude I'd find amusing in a kind of condescending way if it wasn't for the fact that dullards like that are voting with their feet and pounds to fuck our environment up ever more and more and tighten the grip large corporations have over us... fucking morons. "we were lucky enough to have solar panels fitted for free in march thanks to our local council .concequently our electricity bills have halved ( we don't get all the benefit the council take some ) have a colleague at work who is being offered the same deal but doesent want it as it will only last ten years the need replacing wtf it's ten years of cheaper electricity no pleasing some people | |||
