They are never, ever gonna stop fracking btw. Probably the most important energy tech for Amerikkka in its entire existence
Lol I literally had a professor tell us one time that fracking is perfectly fine, I mean people have been using dynamite for over a century and that's totally the same thing!
well nitroglycerin and water are basically the same and they mix very well together also
It'd be amazing if they made a whole area of the state uninhabitable. Can't image the displaced residents would be inclined to do some funny things...
i have less than no faith for the texian to direct their anguish at an appropriate target. at closest it'll be some fool whose house was flattened by an energy company shooting up a dmv
- Captioners couldn't be bothered to spell "Hermleigh" correctly
- You know what would make environmentalists feel just so owned? Triggering human-made earthquakes centered about 54 miles away from the massive conventional weapons caches stored at Dyess Air Force Base. God, we would just be so owned if Texaco managed to blow all of the underground jet fuel tanks and anti-aircraft missile sites immediately outside Abilene and just piss thousands of gallons of benzene-laced JP-8 directly into the ground water tables for a century to come, to say nothing of the plume of carcinogenic shit that would be unleashed on the I-20 corridor. So owned.
it just makes me want to puke. even if we win we're going to spend generations fixing it
Midland is a small city, and many of the residents make their paycheck through the oil industry, directly or indirectly. They're making enough money that they could probably buy the whole city and relocate the population elsewhere. Look up the Eagle Ford region if you want to learn about fracking closer to more humans.
