I live in North-Central Pennsylvania and supported
natural gas drilling initially. However, our small town
has now seen traffic jams, crumbling roads, nonstop truck traffic, roughneck’s in brawls at the local pub, tainted water in wells, rent prices going through the roof and
a gorgeous countryside blotted with drilling pads.
On the plus side it has brought jobs and investment. I still support gas drilling, but I’m beginnig to wonder what town life will be like here in ten years.
I agree.
NO FRACKING!
