In 1930, my greatgrandparents purchased a beautiful farm in Bradford County, PA, in a little hamlet called French Azilum. In the summer, we spent time there, resting, breathing in the fresh air, enjoying the wild flowers, the bright stars and planets on a clear moonlit night, and swimming in the Susquehanna River. If gas drilling is allowed to continue, Bradford County and all of Pennsylvania will be forever changed, ruined beyond repair.

Boomtowns a Nightmare For Law Enforcement
Police are increasingly unable to respond adequately to the enormous increase in emergency calls in areas where gas drilling is ocurring. This is a story from North Dakota.

The gas industry causes more problems than just fracking. The industry would love it if we all continued ranting against fracking, and then poo-pooing that, while the industry is causing all kinds of havoc in other ways. The industry is skilled at fooling us and throwing out many red herrings.
