FRACKING POISONS WATER, AIR & SOIL

In Louisiana,

COWS DIED

SEVENTEEN

AFTER AN HOURS EXPOSURE TO SPILLED FRACKING FLUID. (Most likely cause: respiratory failure.) In north central Pennsylvania, 140 cattle were exposed to fracking wastewater when an impoundment was breached.

APPROXIMATELY
SEVENTY COWS DIED;
waste pit

THE REMAINDER PRODUCED ELEVEN CALVES, OF WHICH ONLY THREE SURVIVED. In western Pennsylvania, an overflowing

sent fracking chemicals into a pond and a pasture where pregnant

cows grazed: HALF THEIR

following years animal births were sexually skewed, with ten females & two males, instead of the usual 50-50 or 60-40 split.

CALVES WERE BORN DEAD. The

Gas drilling cannot be done without environmental impact!

What else can you do?
Contact your local TDs & Councillors. Tell them you are concerned about the effects of fracking on your water, air, soil, environment & livelihood! Ask them how they intend to protect your family, cattle & land. Contact Fracking Free Clare email: clarefrack@gmail.com or ring Becky on 087 9160 175. Watch the film GASLAND, which portrays the negative impact of fracking in America. Simply search YouTube. Check out these links: www.frackingfreeclare.org www.frackingfreeireland.org http://tinyurl.com/shalegasbulletin Fracking is NOT BANNED in Clare. Despite a unanimous vote in opposition to fracking by Clare County Council, it is the National Government that will make the decision whether or not to allow fracking in Clare.
