Lancashire may be unsuitable for fracking.
This is just one small fracking operation that is causing tremors.
British Geological Society suggested the quakes were linked to the fracking activities while an independent report found ‘most likely, the repeated seismicity was induced by direct injection of fluid into the fault zone.’
That is not sensationalism.
Fact 1: Fracking is NOT causing most of the induced earthquakes. ... Wastewater disposal wells typically operate for longer durations and inject much more fluid than hydraulic fracturing, making them more likely to induce earthquakes.

Storm in a tea cup, stuff and nonsense it seems. However what really concerns me are any effects on the water table ---but we don't hear much of that?
