Drown the snails that are too slow to migrate (and the misguided greenies hugging them) and build more hydro. Build a crapload of plug in cars and we're all set to give two fingers to the oil co's and march on into a future that still provides free air and water. But then you need more power stations |

| 1314836 | 2012-11-27 06:27:00 | Can you categorically state, and back it up with an indemnity, that they can't trigger something major, earthquake, polluted water tables etc? Neither can the fossil fuel industry, so, in my view, until they can make that assurance, then they should not be able to go ahead with this stuff. If we followed that line of reasoning we would still all be living in caves, There is no way to prove a negative |

| 1314837 | 2012-11-27 06:28:00 | Ignoring the potential of these small, fracking quakes to trigger adjacent stressed faults, resulting in major quakes. Personally, I struggle with the concept that a 250mm-300mm hole is going to be able to move a tectonic plate regardless of what you do with it. :cool: |

When you can get a 225mm-300mm hole to lift the sea 16 metres let me know. :lol: |

| 1314840 | 2012-11-27 07:34:00 | funny how all the pro frackers (who are also mosty pro global warming conspiracy) are happy to believe the scientists and experts when it suits them....pot ? kettle ? black ? | globe (11482) | ||
| 1314841 | 2012-11-27 07:39:00 | Drill for oil in cathedral flat, Chch. It's been pre-fracked to the hilt already. Is that not a bit cheeky?! |

It is my livelihood, and i like to drive my car. I brought it for that reason not to sit in a garage because petrol is too expensive. Yall go through a shitload of shoes if you have to walk everywhere |
