Stop the dangerous drilling practice, Fracking. It is an extreme process, with catastrophic health results for individuals and our planet.
Why is this important?
Stop fracking in California. We are asking assembly members to support a ban on the dangerous drilling practice. This type of drilling is a method which deploys a potent arsenal of chemicals so hazardous they defy known waste treatment methods. It produces Radon. Exposure to radon is the second leading cause of lung cancer in the U.S., the radon present in the shale will readily mix with the gas and travel with it via pipeline into the homes and businesses of its end users. Fracking threatens our water, our air, our farms, and our health—and contributes to global warming.
