Is the profit for a select few worth the environmental devastation of our land and water. These activities will affect our childrens quality of life and the future of so much we love. I worked in the industry for years and watched it evolve and the wells got bigger and bigger. Now we know the engineered systems fail in a large number of these wells. They WILL CONTAMINATE, and they are having an effect on global warming, anybody looking at this can see. I left the oil/gas paychecks behind because my stomach didnt set well with it. This is after working my way up to drilling. This is a cry for us to open our eyes. We do not have the right to change climates for profits, the weather and environment is not for sale. It is time that we stand for something or we will continue to fall for anything. The changes are not something you can deny. I have noticed that the people of WV have always been proud of land and heritage. Lets keep it that way.
