  There are at least SEVEN different 38 degrees campaign suggestions about fracking!

  PLEASE cancel this one and focus all energy on the strongest, which is this one calling for a moratorium:

  We have to act swiftly and TOGETHER! Dilultion is not the answer!

  There is a Downing Street Moratorium Petition too - please share:

  Note that there is a separate suggested campaign on fracking with more votes. If you have voted here you should probably transfer you votes to that suggestion:

  ProPublic has extensive coverage of what fracking has done to communities across the US. This might be useful to anyone who wants to know why this must be stopped.

  This article in particular is worth reading (though it is pretty long):

  From what I am led to believe, the damage to the environment, peoples health and the effect on lives can be devastating. The film 'Gasland' and/or clips on youtube can help to give an insight into what has happened in the US. Gas Fracking has already started in the UK without our full awareness or choice.
