What’s in fracking fluid?

January 23, 2013 by Andrew Leave a Comment

Fracking is the process of forcing gas out from the ground. It’s an alternative for drilling for oil and although it has many merits there are plenty of people concerned about the impact it’ll have.

The problem with fracking fluid is that it’s a secret much of the time. It’s the key to success, along with special drills that can bend, so the details aren’t shared widely. However, some fracking fluids contain toxins and harmful material. That’s just one of the reasons some people worrying about this new technique.

What do you think about fracking? Is it going to be a really useful technique? Or are you worried about it?

The danger of our oil economy

May 8, 2012 by Andrew Leave a Comment

This is an interesting video – after all, it’s not pro “tree” or green and even takes a bash at “treehuggers”. However it presents a factual look at how oil is so interwoven in our economy that we’ve created a system the planet cannot support.

The result? We need a third industrial revolution if we want to continue to live comfortably in the developed world and bring the rest of the globe up to standard.

205 Million Gallons: What if the Gulf of Mexico spill never happened?

April 28, 2011 by Andrew Leave a Comment

Do you know anyone who’s still talking about or worried about the Gulf of Mexico oil spill?

Chris Harmon points out although we don’t yet – and may never know – the environmental impact of the oil spill we do know what the impact of actually using the 205 million gallons of oil would have been.

Chris designed, animated and wrote the animation himself and Kim Estes provided the voice. Was it an effective presentation for you? Should we be doing more to keep the conversation about oil dependency going? Can we be ethical and green while still allowing the world economy to function?
