The christian bible quotes that what good is it if a man gains the whole world and looses his soul? The general population takes the real risk (loss of health, property, drinking water, polluted air to breathe, destroyed roads and bridges, pets, farm animals, and wildlife killed.) All the while the drillers and oil & gas companies take the rewards and share very little. The courts have made them pay back money for the gas that they stole and charges that should not have been deducted from the royality payments. They tell the public that we will be energy independent, yet they are building a raceway to export all of our gas to foreign markets that will pay more. Again," WE TAKE THE RISK, THEY TAKE THE REWARD!". RISK v REWARD. The christian bible quotes that what good is it if a man gains the whole world and looses his soul?

This past week I met people who suffer from chemical exposure simply by living near these facilities. Even when operating "normally", the industrial processes release tremendous amounts of chemicals into the atmosphere. Those that are heavier than air accumulate and concentrate in valleys and low areas throughout the region. Our group was overcome during a visit to a man's home near the MarkWest plant near Houston PA. And Joseph, the man we visited and his caretaker and friend, Jeanie, were physically and psychologically bereaved ... obviously impacted by chemical exposure. We need to have President Obama visit the hundreds ..... more likely thousands who experience health effects from living near these facilities. This is an immediate human health crisis that needs to be addressed now before more people are harmed! Please contact me if you know people who live within a mile of well pads, cryogenic plants, or compressor stations. Impact zones may extend many miles further in valleys that receive heavier than air emissions from facilities on ridge lines and hill tops.

It seems to me, he thinks that any information that counters his quest for success is flawed and needs to be eliminated and replaced with the facts that favor his quest. The arrogance he displays is similar to the arrogance of the top officials of other mega-corporations. What is evident in his talk is the impact the public has (which is now informed, not misinformed on energy, economical and evironmental issues) in demanding truth. Evidently, Mr Tillerson is not ready to handle this.     Sharron Burgess Subject: Rex Tillerson of Exxon Mobil Keeps on Talking

He seems to be - dare I use the word- ignorant of biology. The disruption to all biological systems that are, and will be caused by the changing climate, are not an engineering problem. And if he really respects math so much, he should check out Bill McKibben's "Do The Math" tour at www.350.org.
