Gracii Guns Posted August 19, 2013 Share Posted August 19, 2013 (edited) At least it's not in the 'desolate North East'. We all know we've been consuming far too much for far too long, people shouldn't get shocked that they're going to feel the repercussions of their actions further down the line. No, it's not pleasant that it's near someone's homes, and that it causes environmental damage. As long as fuel comes from Asia it's ok, but taking steps towards a self-suddiciency and industry, then it's a massive problem?

Dazey Posted August 20, 2013 Share Posted August 20, 2013 whats fracking?It's where they pump water into rock deep underground at very high pressure. This ruptures the shale layers and releases deposits of natural gas. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dazey Posted August 20, 2013 Share Posted August 20, 2013 I've decided that I'm going to infiltrate one of these mobs and feed 'em all a bunch of laxatives before they chain themselves to something. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There have apparently been issues with unpleasant environmental impact as a result when it's been tried elsewhere hence the beardy brigade's involvement.

At the end of the day though if we ain't gonna all start sticking windmills and solar panels on our houses then we need to investigate alternative sources of energy.

Dazey Posted August 20, 2013 Share Posted August 20, 2013 Wow...OK, that can't be good.Thing is that it's an industrial process and industrial processes tend to involve the use of nasty chemicals. The question is whether or not it can be done safely or not without allowing these chemicals to cause contamination to water courses and the like.

AxlisOld Posted August 20, 2013 Share Posted August 20, 2013 All reports of "flammable water" or even brown or discolored water were found to be COMPLETE bullshit.Lol ratbrain. That list could be picked apart. Let's see, baking soda, hydrochloric acid (toilet bowl cleaner anyone?), antifreeze. Also...isopropanol and isopropyl alcohol are the same thing. Herr derr.Shit, there's more hazardous chemicals in most food in the supermarket. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DieselDaisy Posted August 20, 2013 Share Posted August 20, 2013 I bet this is what causes that modern phenomenon, man boobage. Have you ever read that? Stuff in the water supply turning the modern man into Jordan? It certainly is something modern as you never heard about Drake and Raleigh going around with a 46DD.
