Posting fwiw.
Planet in distress... again...
EXCERPT:
Lafayette-based anti-fracking activist Cliff Willmeng said he spent two days “zig-zagging” across Weld and Boulder counties documenting flooded drilling sites, mostly along the drainageway of the St. Vrain River. He observed “hundreds” of wells that were inundated. He also saw many condensate tanks that hold waste material from fracking at odd angles or even overturned.
“It’s clear that the density of the oil and gas activity there did not respect where the water would go,” Willmeng said. “What we immediately need to know is what is leaking and we need a full detailed report of what that is. This is washing across agricultural land and into the waterways. Now we have to discuss what type of exposure the human population is going to have to suffer through.”

Thanks for the link.
Yes this has got to stop.
There are other ways to do things.
Renewable AND free energy technologies exist!

That would be ironic if much of the flood water flowing into rivers used for farm irrigation is contaminated with shale oil fracking chemicals. Colorado has one of the largest shale oil reserves. Underground water pollution is already a problem with hydraulic fracking of shale oil and gas; flooding might make the pollution worse.

Sure is, they are not saying much but it is apparent if you have ever been in the area of those oil wells and fracking sites that there is a lot now heading down river to all the agricultural areas.
Keep in mind that this runs into Nebraska then follow the Platte there to see where all the contamination will go.
Not good at all for the food supply folks.
