News: Fracking restart sends out the wrong signals
13 December 2012
Commenting on Ed Davey's announcement that hydraulic fracturing can resume, Friends of the Earth Scotland campaigner Mary Church said:
"While we welcome the announcement of a study into the climate change impact of shale gas, this is a classic case of putting the cart before the horse. A green light for fracking sends out all the wrong signals. It's an unproven technique here in the UK, with an increasingly poor environmental track record around the world.
