Join us for a webinar with Dr. Kathy Nolan, a Compendium author, October 30, 7:00pm ET
The Delaware River Frack Ban and Climate Action Coalition invites you to join us for a deep dive into how the development of fracking has negatively impacted the health of those who live in Pennsylvania’s shale region communities. This will be a virtual, free presentation.
Thursday, October 30, 7-8 pm
High volume hydraulic fracturing (“fracking”) has released air and water pollution, harming peoples’ health, and its industrial footprint has indelibly degraded communities and their environment. Thousands of health and environmental studies and reports have documented the growing adverse effects as fracking has expanded over the years. Dr. Nolan will examine why and how this is occurring.
The current push by the federal government and industrial interests to increase fossil fuel development, coupled with the new demand for more fracking to serve data centers and the export of Liquified Natural Gas (LNG) here in Pennsylvania, is further threatening the health and safety of our communities. And recent moves by federal legislators such as closed-door meetings with federal officials and pro-fracking interests have revealed a concerted effort to expand fracked gas development statewide by overturning the ban on fracking in the Delaware River Watershed and building LNG export facilities on the Delaware River.
Documenting and exposing fracking’s enormous harm to human health is a powerful and essential task that must be advanced if we are to stop the fracking juggernaut. Please join us to learn more about it and how you can help stop this frack attack.
