Heavy Fraffic equals to 400 to 600 water trucks to frack one natural gas well!! Where will they get all this water? Extract it from local streams and ground wells? How long can the environment support this kind of aggression? Can you believe 80,000 gallons of toxic chemicals injected into one fracked well? Benzene? Fight back and write to you Congressmen, Representatives and local elected officials! Ban Fracking in your Town! Go CELDF.org ! They will help you organize! Don't wait! Do it now!

This kind of harsh poisionous industrial activity "Fracking" will eventualy destroy human kind! It must be stopped before it's too late for our survival!

I camped and fished Pine Creek as a kid. Stop this insanity before it is too late!

It's not illegal for trucks to drive on public highways. Here in Western PA we've dealt with the coal trucks for decades that haul the coal that makes your electricity. Luckily for you, gas wells take much less time to drill. Some coal mines here operate for decades. I hope they move on down the road for you sooner rather than later.

The traffic noise David is talking about is NOT exaggerated. It's so quiet in the country - I can hear those trucks miles away coming up our mountain - 24/7 racket destroys the peaceful quiet.  I wanted to live here and grow old here in the silence - and that's not going to happen. thank you for a sensitive truthful film.

Canoed Pine Creek in the 70's. Another beautiful place bit's the dust.

Wilkinsburg is a dump. Keep drilling. Thanks to Shell Oil I have the best job I have ever had

I see it spreading to Rose Valley and across the North Central Part of Pennsylvania. It is like a cancer, it just keeps growing and growing and will soon choke the life out of us.

I lived for awhile in Saudi Arabia - let's just say the environs doesn't look like this. Does that give anyone a clue as to what this industry is doing to our country?!?
