Hey Canadians :

There is a GREAT Documentary playing this week on "The Nature of Things" with David Suzuki, on the horrible practice of Hydraulic Fracking, or "Fracking".

http://www.cbc.ca/natureofthings/epi...ed-ground.html

its on CBC this week - really worth watching. One thing I learned : Fracking came to Quebec, but fortunately was stopped before it caused the damage it did in the US.

Check it out!

Suzuki has to win the award for most full of shit Canadian

I saw this and what really blew me away is the amount of water that fracking is permanently taking out of the water table per day. there is no way it can go on forever. 3.5 million gallons per day? insane.

also the fact that canadians do not own the rights to the minerals on their properties, if you've got something on your land and they want it, you have little recourse.

Great guy ... I'll look out for it thanks.

Kinda confused .... Where does the water go????
Does it fly away into outer space???

Or does it change water into something else?? (can't see the video)

I know I was really surprised at this too. I knew they used water, but didn't know they used that much. Plus did you see the drained rivers and lakes? I wish the documentary would have spent a little more time on this part. Really surprising and sad.

The water is pumped back out, but it is high polluted. It is so polluted that according to the documentary, the water recycling places that most North American cities have can't clean it.

So what they did was create something called Evaporation ponds to let the water evaporate then clean the sludge left behind. They stopped doing this 3 years ago because it didn't work, it created more airborne pollution, and probably killed every bird that landed in it for a rest or a drink.

Now what they do is drill more holes and pump the water back underground. STUPID because it just gets into the water table and pollutes it too, sooner or later.

We have been looking around at buying a house here in Montreal, and in alot of places, new houses are heated not by oil or electricity, but by natural gas. Now that I've seen this documentary there's no way I would ever buy a house heated with this crap. Even regular oil is less polluting than natural gas from fracking.

It's only going to get worse because they are using Fracking to get both oil & gas here in North America. Europe is doing it as well.

They are going to fuck up all the drinking water and we will all be fucked.

Funny, the earthquakes stopped in Arkansas when they temporarily stopped the fracking biz.
Don't know if its restarted.

Big oil is determined to kill us all for $$$. I think the plan is to turn the dead bodies into more oil.

well they pump it so far underground that it goes way beyond the water table, for the time being at least but the bottom line is that water is no longer useable and if they keep pumping it underground and it actually stays there, its beyond the water table and therefore gone forever. not to mention causes small earthquakes.

they touched on a new process that reuses the water/chemical mixture over and over again for fracking which seems better but apparently is more expensive and therefore not a desirable option. they should at least make that process mandatory.

since harper is sucking the energy industry's dick there is no chance of anything happening federally to stop fracking, the only hope is at the provincial level. BC and alberta residents don't mine sacrificing their land for the revenue energy companies bring in but hopefullly other provinces aren't so short sighted.

when the water coming from your kitchen faucet is flammable something is terribly wrong.....that's fracking.

CyberHustler · 02-10-2013, 08:24 PM

Yeah, they tearing Pennsylvania apart with that fracking shit. A buddy of mine out there can def light his sink water on fire too.
