Beyond Fracking: the Next Steps in the 'Extreme Energy' Debate in Britain

Beyond Fracking: the next steps in the 'extreme energy' debate in Britain

Paul Mobbs Mobbs' Environmental Investigations http://www.fraw.org.uk/mei/

Swalcliffe Grange, North Oxfordshire, December 2012 Do our conceptions of “fracking” Paul Mobbs, 2011 encompass its 'reality'?

Pro-Publica, 2008

There are many ignored issues... here's one: The 'strategic environmental appraisal' (SEA) report produced by DECC outlined a scenario for the 14th Round PEDL licences. What the report considered was only a superficial set of environmental impact parameters...

There are many ignored issues... here's one: If we use the SEA data, and then add information for the likely effluent quality, it is possible to calculate the levels of waste generation omitted from the SEA report.

There are many ignored issues... here's one: The Government uses a higher gas production per well compared to US data. On the SEA's figures only 0.5% to 10% of the resource is produced; more realistic data would indicate 0.2% to 4%. These new figures represent a 2½ times increase – but may be two or four times more with higher recovery. The Mackay- Stone report: The Government justifies the “low carbon” qualities of shale gas with reference to DECC's 2013 report, Potential Greenhouse Gas Emissions Associated with Shale Gas Extraction and Use. Question is, are the data and assumptions in the report valid?

The Mackay- fugitive emissions emissions per per well Stone report: = unit of gas gas production per well Mackay & Stone's Source: Low High figures in results are arguably Mackay/Stone 2 5 billion cu. feet one quarter of the USGS 0.03 2.8 values produced USDoE 1.4 1.8 when using more Paper figures accepted Paper rejected as “outlier” representative data.

University of Liverpool Shale Gas Hub Edinburgh 'Extreme politics' “Consultations, impact assessments, audits, reviews, stakeholder management. this is not how we became one of the most powerful, prosperous nations on earth. So I am determined to change this. Here’s how: ● Cutting back on judicial reviews. ● Reducing government consultations. ● Streamlining European legislation. ● Stopping the gold-plating of legislation at home. When this country was at war in the 40s, Whitehall underwent a revolution. Normal rules were circumvented. Convention was thrown out. Well, this country is in the economic equivalent of war today - and we need the same spirit. We need to forget about crossing every ‘t’ and dotting every ‘i’ and we need to throw everything we’ve got at winning in this global race.” th David Cameron's speech to the CBI – 19 November 2012 When “there is no alternative”, when we are in “the economic equivalent of war”, any level of dissent is by its nature a threat to “business as usual”
