UNFRACKTURED: JOINING TOGETHER TO FIGHT FRACKING
Video: 11 Minutes about the Town of Dryden Effort to Ban Fracking. Fracking: Using millions of gallons of water and secret chemicals, oil and gas companies crack open underground rock formations, forcing deposits of oil and gas tucked deep within the earth up to the surface. This controversial process, combined with industry deregulation, has landed our country smack in the middle of an ill-timed oil and gas rush.
Seemingly determined to get every last drop of oil and pocket of gas, the industry has worked itself into a 31-state frenzy, drilling next to homes, schools, even in the middle of cemeteries. They’re polluting air and water, making people sick, hurting communities and delaying our transition to clean, safe, renewable energy.

Video: Fracking Goes Global
LinkTV–27 Minutes. (Earth Focus: Episode 52) US domestic gas production is on the rise because of hydraulic fracturing, or fracking, a controversial method of extracting natural gas from shale rock by pumping millions of gallons of water mixed with sand and chemicals underground at high pressure. Environmentalists say this gas boon threatens water supplies and pollutes air. Now, as fracking expands around the world, so does growing resistance. Earth Focus looks at three countries on the new fracking frontline: South Africa, Poland, and the UK. Reported from South Africa by Jeff Barbee and Andrew Wasley (The Ecologist) from Poland and the UK. Posted June, 2014.

When the film “Gasland” aired in Germany, the German public was awakened to the fact that the gas industry is already using hydraulic fracturing in their country. The uproar caused by the film forced Exxon Mobile Germany to rethink its strategies of how to promote unconventional shale gas development in Germany.
Germany, the world leader in developing renewable energy, is currently in the process of determining the role that shale gas might play in Germany’s energy future. The environmental authorities will advocate for strict regulation and oversight if the German legislature permits unconventional gas development in Germany.
