Two new reports on Fracking from Green MEP Keith Taylor and Euractiv.com

Flaring in Pennsylvania - K. Taylor

Our Green MEP Keith Taylor has recently returned from a visit to Fracking sites in Pennsylvania. He has also just published a report on Fracking in the EU 'Our countryside is not for shale' You can read and download it HERE

Euractiv.com (a site for EU news and policy debates) has also reported on proposals for a legal framework for shale gas in Europe to minimise its risks. While the only completely safe way to deal with shale gas is to leave it in the ground, the attempts to regulate the industry are welcome and timely. The Euractiv report is HERE
