Permanent Fracking Ban
The longterm risks of Fracking out weigh the short term benefits. All Fracking is banned in Michigan forever. .
Why is this important?
Fracking burdens local infrastructure. Roads are stressed with heavy hauling of liquids to frack sites. Air is filled with diesel exhaust. Poisonous Fracking liquids are stored in vulnerable surface pools. And of course the highly pressurized fracking liquids or slippery water, threaten 20% of the earth's fresh water. We must reject this dangerous excuse for cheap energy.
