Shale gas extraction issues go beyond fracking
2014-09-21 15:21:11| Oil & Gas - Topix.net
Ask oil and gas industry advocates, environmentalists and regulators about the biggest issues facing shale gas development, and none are likely to cite the possibility of fracking fluids traveling up thousands of feet of rock into groundwater aquifers as their top concern. There's surface spills, transportation accidents, leaks in holding tanks and impoundments - all of these have much more potential to pollute groundwater.

Energy Live: Water shortages pose a big threat to the global shale oil and gas industry, a new report claims. More than a third of commercially viable shale gas deposits worldwide are in areas that are either dry or have water supply constraints, environmental think tank World Resources Institute said. The process of extracting gas and oil from shale rock deep underground -- known as fracking -- requires huge amounts of water. Out of the 20 countries with the largest shale gas resources, eight have deposits...

Shale gas industry needs more study, Justin Trudeau says in New Brunswick
2014-08-23 16:05:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Canadian Press: Greater scientific study is required before Canada expands its shale gas industry, federal Liberal Leader Justin Trudeau said Saturday while campaigning alongside his provincial counterpart in New Brunswick. Trudeau waded into the controversial issue while at a rally in Moncton with New Brunswick Liberal Leader Brian Gallant, who is vying to become premier after the Sept. 22 provincial election. "I'm very much in agreement with Mr. Gallant that in terms of fracking and shale gas, we need to...
