BBC has an article that fracking "may harm wildlife" in the UK. Umm, you think? Organizations are creating no frack zones for the protection of wildlife in the UK. :
... Harry Huyton is head of energy and climate change at the RSPB.
He told BBC News: "We have found that there are serious potential risks to
the environment from fracking.
"There are risks associated with using lots of water, with causing the
accidental contamination of water, but also from the infrastructure that is
required by the industry. This could mean lots of well pads all around the
landscape. All of these could have an impact on wildlife.
"We would like the country's most special sites to be frack free. We think
that's the reasonable thing to do at the outset of this industry. These areas
are very special and also very vulnerable to disturbance and pollution. Why not,
from the beginning, say that these areas are out of bounds."
Thank you UK for being on board... To read more visit :http://www.bbc.com/news/science-environment-26553117
