Fracking The UK (English Edition)

In the USA shale gas extraction is taking a toll on the nation's environment and health.
Now in the UK, the oil and gas companies are faced with ever-diminishing returns from conventional sources. They want to bring hydraulic fracturing, coal bed methane and underground coal gasification to our coastal and rural areas.

In this book Alan Tootill looks at the history of shale gas in the US, the damage it is causing, and how a powerful industry wants to industrialise Britain's landscape. His conclusion is simple. We must not allow this to happen here.
