According to Business Insider,

Following seismic tremors in North-West
England this Spring, the firm exploring for natural shale gas in the region
has admitted that the disturbances were caused by the controversial
exploration process of fracking. Fracking involves cracking or fracturing
rock, containing trapped shale gas, by using pressurized liquid. Shale gas is
an increasingly important energy resource though there have been claims that
it is worse for the environment than coal, largely due to the fracking
process. [source BUSINESS INSIDER]

if I'm reading between the lines correctly,
does this mean that WE HAVE REACHED PEAK SHALE GAS in the west in that the
Fracking Process used to extract it is TOO DAMNED DANGEROUS as well as too
expensive to be OF ANY VIABLE USE TO ANYONE (though this doesn't affect the
gold extraction process which poisons third world countries where it is
mined)?

Ahhh. The attack of the frack! The Business Insider..... UK Fracking Firm Admits They Are Causing Earthquakes 1649822485

For Pete's sake. Like most, if all you listen to are the screamin memee environmentalists, you will never learn anything except how to be a memee. Ignorance always shouts louder than true understanding.

If done properly (as it is done in the US) it is not a threat to the environment or even the polar bears! The UK may possibly have lower standards for knowing and using proper technique and taking the appropriate precautions in this work, who knows. That is a possibility. But…

2. No, it doesn't cause earthquakes. (Come on. Sounds to me like this Liberal environmentalist got stuck in the “spin” cycle. he fashioned it to add fuel to his fire for the people who believe polar bears are stuck treading water ... because there is no ice… because I drive a car to get to work and use Primatene Mist for my asthma.)

3. Like Cain, when a group wants to shut you down and steer the outcome of a debate, they use the media to bend and twist and morph words to their liking. Right becomes wrong and wrong becomes right, whatever it takes to get and keep control. Big deals out of little deals and little deals out of big, as long as it is controversial and gets the attention of the environmentalists and others. Don't get me wrong. I take care of my own back yard but environmentalism has run amuck just like political correctness has become a poison to our society. Other countries laugh at us because we are so tangled up in our own underwear we can't breathe without somebody suing you. UK Fracking Firm Admits They Are Causing Earthquakes 858978640

When you read, "According to Business Insider," that should have been the warning of the "fiction to come." Just sayin’.
