a fracking disaster

The process now used around the US to get at natural gas, called fracking,
is causing a stir everywhere.
It seems to be cracking the bedrock to get at trapped gas,
but most often gets gas to mix with ground water.

Would you like a match with your water?

I just keep getting this apocalyptic vision in my head that it's gonna cause those areas to just explode and sink into the ground.

Already, fracking seems to have brought a non-stop chain of earthquakes to Arizona



Apparently this was foretold in a James Bond movie.
More soon, Miss Moneypenny. There musht be shum mishtake!
