No surprises... Environment Agency Fracking Pie

[SteveA]

The Environment Agency has its fingers in the fracking pie.... Is the Environment Agency fit for purpose?

 

I'm not surprised.

 

Shouldn't the EA be an independent organisation?

[TGB]

Why am I not surprised.

The boys that sort the ditches etc are fine in my experience, but no I wouldn't trust most of the management with their university ingrained Im wonderful me 1st attitude. Poncing around destroying the small fry for having a bonfire etc.

The problem is at the top mate.... and I'm not saying it's corruption. Nooo, I would never suggest a thing like that.

Was the ex-chief of BP, is a House of Lords member, still has affiliations with Cuadrilla, and has appointed numerous people into positions of power within DEFRA, EA etc.

 

Did somebody say corruption?

I don't have a problem with fracking, with the proper controls we have nothing to fear. When you look around the world today having your own energy sources can only be a good thing.

Here!! here!!!

 

Every one wants their cars, trucks, flights for holidays, gas central heating, etc,etc….

 

But they want the mess of getting the energy to be some other countries problem

 

The only people who have the right to object to fracking are those who use no fossil fuel, anyone else is just a hypocrite:thumbdown: IMO.

What a load of tosh:thumbdown:

 

There are lots of energy options available with fracking being just one. Sure other options may cost more per kWh but they exist and I think we should pursue them.
