Guardian: Shale frackers operating in Britain should be paying 6bn a year in taxes by the middle of the 2020s to compensate for the damage wreaked on the environment, according to a study from Cambridge University. The government has made clear drillers such as Cuadrilla Resources and IGas should provide sweeteners to local communities affected by their activities but it would also be right for shale gas producers to pay for contributing to global warming, argues Chris Hope, a parliamentary adviser and...

United Kingdom: Round one went to the anti-frackers. But now round two begins
2014-01-20 02:24:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Telegraph: Countryside campaigners are to try to bridge the ever-growing gap between fracking firms and protestors by providing neutral forums to debate the issues involved in exploiting shale gas and oil. The Council for the Protection of Rural England, which has been careful not to come out against the industry, says it will take the initiative so long as it can find a prominent partner, like the Royal Society, and so long as it is not financed, even partially, by the oil and gas industry. The move comes...
