Truth and Consequences of Fracking:
An
Evening with Jessica Ernst
Thursday, May 24, 2012 7pm
Lafayette High School, 3122 Route 11, Lafayette, NY.
Jessica Ernst is an environmental scientist,
with 30 years' experience in the oil industry. At her farm in Alberta,
Canada she is forced to get water from outside sources because her well
is poisoned, as well as containing explosive levels of methane gas. Jessica’s
career and personal experience make her uniquely qualified to talk on
this subject. The talk is free and open to the public.

Basic Information
Slickwater Horizontal Hydrofracking is a
new process for natural gas extraction that could shortly be a regular
process seen in upstate New York because of the extensive Marcellus and
Utica Shale deposits found throughout Central New York and the Southern
Tier. NOON and the Onondaga Nation oppose hydrofracking because of the
intensive resource use and the environmental and health impacts that are
often incurred from the drilling process, inevitable accidents, and their
aftermath. Hydrofracking will harm our communities, our land, our water,
and our air; the impacts will be felt for generations.
