Natural gas drilling next to PA Rt. 29 in Dimock, PA

Recorded on June 8, 2010 on Rt. 29 in Dimock, PA. Imagine 6taking the family out for nice drive in the country and you have this approximately 200 feet from the road you're driving on. Now, imagine a well blow-out like they've had in Clearfield, PA and in Texas. You know... that one that set the ground on fire and hasn't beed put out yet.

gee what kind of car or camera where you useing when u took this, last i knew cars used gas, put out pollution, and cameras are made with plastics and other materials that are patroleum based. and the making of both these products put out a large amount of waste....once the rig comes down the well pad is quit small and the trees are replaced...so one sided show a completed site oh that would be hard since they hardly noticeable...stop the lies, give the whole story not only the bad

I keep hearing the same tired and proven lies about: economic development, a clean home grown energy source, and local jobs. 1)The economic development is going to be the typical "boom/bust" short-term boom/permanent bust cycle we've seen in every other state. It also doesn’t not take into consideration the jobs that will be ultimately and permanently lost in: tourism, recreation, agriculture, forestry, and the hardwood industry.

Another thing we must realize is that natural gas companies like Chesapeake, Anadarko, EXCO, Chevron, Atlas, Carrizo, etc., are not even American owned companies! They are multinational corporations that are in partnerships and joint-ventures with China, India, Norway, and other foreign countries. Therefore, the gas that will be extracted from under our feet, under our properties, and commonwealth state lands will be sold on the global market to the highest bidder.

@JAT1951 tired of hearing selling on the open market, the gas americans use in there cars is purchased on the global market, so we keep this source and god help us if all other countries did the same, due u know where we would be???? starving, yes starving, this country doesnt even produce enough food to feed its people, so foreign trade is useful for all. these gas co. are here for a min. of 30 years i will take a proven economy here for the time being, too much welfare in susquehanna county,
