It's Not Enough That the Oil Companies Are Poisoning the Air, the River and the Seas

They are also poisoning the water table.

Yes, I know that this is not a new story. It's been going on for many years. I don't know why the oil and gas folks seem to think that injecting toxins and carcinogens into the water table is a good idea. (We could ask the Oil Slut, who will be happy to tell us so.)

They'll say that it is harmless. Fine, let's serve up glasses of that hydrofracking compound and see if they'll drink it.

Wednesday will be the first anniversary of British Petroleum's little misadventure in the Gulf of Mexico. In case you've forgotten.

  1. But you haven't considered all the highly-paid "scientists" whose job it is to claim that fracking is awesome and safe and our babies would be happy bathing in all sorts of petroleum and natural gas byproducts.

  2. This is off topic, but I just came across a picture that I thought you might like to see. I found the link to it on a post on Burro Hall (http://burrohall.blogspot.com/2011/04/sabado-gigante_16.html).
