Petition To prevent all hydraulic fracturing from taking place within the Peak D

[Mike Griffiths]

We recently heard about relatively new method for exploiting resources from our land, Fracking, the impact the required practices will have is of great concern to us all. BBC news reported on Fracking under national parks backed by MPs.
MPs voted to allow fracking for shale gas 1,200m below national parks and other protected sites.

There is a petition to prevent all hydraulic fracturing from taking place within the Peak District.
“In the light of HM Government’s recent decision to allow hydraulic fracturing via horizontal drilling, we state this decision should be repealed with an immediate effect. Not only due to the UK’s recent agreement to tackle climate change in Paris, also preserve the Peak District for future generations.”
