Hydraulic Fracturing

What is Fracking?

When the aquifers have all dried up

When the aquifers have all dried up and what remains is poisoned by gas,
Remember the farm that was, before there was Coal Seam Gas.

Remember the children in Tara, the blood running from their nose, their ears their nervous spasms, the result of Coal Seam Gas.

Remember the farms that were, before farmers were forced off their land,
The water is poison, the soil contaminated, thanks to Coal Seam Gas.

Remember the election this month, jobs, jobs, jobs, jobs, jobs!
The Premier is on a mission, he refuses to answer anything else.

When the farms are gone, primary production has ceased and our food is imported from elsewhere.
We can tell our grandchildren, we sat idly by, and listened to lies about Coal Seam Gas.

Methane, a damn side more toxic than carbon

Australia Pacific LNG Spin

Check out this clip from Australia Pacific LNG. They've chosen Darren Lockyer, an ex professional rugby league player turned sports commentator, to host the clip. Farmers appear to be very happy with the treated water from the fracking sites.

Of course there's nothing wrong with Coal Seam Gas.

                               

Coal Seam Gas Toxic Water Discharge

This water is a by-product from Coal Seam Gas Drilling and will include toxic liquids from drill sumps and fracking pits
