We commend our elected officials in the Pikes Peak region for their successes to date in keeping our region -- and our children -- safe from the toxic effects of fracking. We urge them to continue their efforts to safeguard our health, our livelihoods, and our property values from the well-documented dangers posed by fracking.
Why is this important?
The way of life we cherish in the Pikes Peak region is dependent on the beauty of our natural surroundings as well as the clean water and air our children drink and breathe as they grow up here. Fracking is an issue that continues to pose a well-documented threat to our resources, and we remain vigilant about that threat.
