 Hello, Website re-launch
As many of you will have noticed, unfortunately we had a serious problem with our new Frack Free Scotland website, but hopefully you’ll be pleased to know its back up and running and ready for action! And the first action we need to take is to object to Dart Energy’s planning applications for a major coalbed methane development in the Forth Valley. Coalbed methane is one of a number of forms of unconventional gas that the energy industry is increasingly turning to as conventional sources run out. There hasn’t been a proper assessment of the environmental and health risks associated with unconventional gas extraction – which include climate change emissions and risks to the water environment – nor of public acceptability of these activities. It is of great concern that this project could be developed before a comprehensive review of the full life cycle environmental and health impacts of unconventional gas extraction has been undertaken, and before environmental regulations have caught up with the new technologies proposed. Log on to find out more about unconventional gas and fracking, and take action in your local area now! Please also forward to your friends and colleagues, particularly those in the Stirling and Falkirk area who are facing the first commercial production of onshore unconventional gas in their area. We welcome any feedback on the website, please go to the ‘About us’ page to get in touch with any comments. The website has come out of the work of an informal coalition of groups and individuals who are concerned about unconventional gas extraction including Friends of the Earth Scotland and Stirling and Falkirk local groups, Transition Stirling, People & Planet, Stirling Greens, Dumfries & Galloway Greens, Women’s Environment Network. If you or your organisation would like to get involved please get in touch via the website. Yours,
