that joining us on the program again is
and each I but he's the
candidate from the Green Party to run
for a member of the European Parliament
here in Wales
and he's been with us before regarding
most things environmental and fracking
now and the walk back to review
fueling this could see you good morning
um
what I'm trying to get a handle on the
houses were looking this week at the
IPCC report on a number of issues
related to fracking as I'd like to
kind of tie things up into a into a nice
packages best weekend here that we've
just
come also the one thousand year
flooding events in the state of Colorado
and
a real evidence is shown that a 150
wells fracking wells have been affected
and
clearly in many other photos you can see
the
a main storage tanks holding much the
fracking fluids
have been tipped over and emptied in
part be washed away in the flood waters
now the big concern is with them
question I have for you is a former
geologist to somebody who understands
all this very well
what is so the impacts a all these
chemicals
all the soil as they move their way
downstream
and wall impact will that have on
agriculture for the region
you talk about a thousand year flood the
Missisquoi might use
know that those classifications by some
historical does and was gonna happen is
that they'll use of who's going to be
some up to a hundred years long sought
to
climate joins own so we might see a
story now is going to be so we will see
an increase in the use to
think it serves as the the damage to the
the fucking solace in so long this will
be on services that he was involved
because most those sites have been
fucked already so
with this is actually from chemicals in
those times we know is
is not known was perhaps more likely to
be most those tanks is believed he was
told of flowback water which is what
planes use
the issues in the cell consumes aqui les
do it too
ingredients and heavy metals in Seoul a
does probably Maldives consumes the
impact sold homes
this is using the sword is also gonna
hang around much longer
this is where he studies is that these
games future I'm
woke up by heavy metal you do me no sir
radioactive contaminants I mean we know
that radon is there we know that there's
other to give us an idea of some of the
chemicals that might be found
don't know that the Joe July 8
specifically in lawsuits it to know for
sure what's going to be down there
the commonly associated with which was
filed to YouTube law issue: you human
value
tostitos very commonly associated with
which August I was show
moving lies in Seoul so you
you it almost invariably was going to be
some nasty mix is tough
and how does one get to the disclosure
also these things is obviously
you know there's been love lack of
oversight from the Environmental
Protection Agency and
others a as well as intense about of
secrecy on the part of these
oil and drilling companies to keep this
information from the public how do
the PIP that is the public find out
what's actually been sent out as a
result of this for
is impossible to know exactly what's
will whilst there
the in tunis you going at noon to choke
analysis
the Susan cells consumes a slow but
water
nobody knows exactly what's in there and
so the know that you choose into the
Indus is down
and you know we've had issues with that
being in the UK
known since it will happen in ninety
shooting tonight is the slogan
wanted it do you believe looking for
some things that we knew was going to
manage only
look for things it's a you know to look
for
who is always going to be things in the
mix the two
which in you know it you know you know
where those two texts so this ones who
becomes a foam food down
Intel the lines whose own sauce getting
simpson's is
contamination that whose you might be
thinking it was you need onions
space he's an HIV is the Green Party
candidate for the European Parliament
here to Wales here and will be with
Dennis Campbell
now Andy um let's talk a little bit
about
coal seam gas there's been we had a
report earlier this week from somebody
up in Scotland about the attempts and
and and
rather dangerous process involved in
actually creating explosions underground
informal coal mines to release this gas
that could be even worse in what we see
in fracking up talk a little bit about
some other dangers here in Wales since
this was a
coal-mining country for so long and why
this is such a sensitive issue
coal seam gas cation it was a coal seam
gas mining
mean loses long history users trying to
choose knew that some safety could do
some
you can fax it to release the Senate
committees and coal mines a plumber
she's been gone so many using 10 as does
not mean it doesn't go fuck you song to
you
seen as a man as he poses think but when
you start so cute belts coal
gasification jim is a whole different
ball game as well basically
on key issues is that posing I should do
dinner call you to manage to do volume
locklear were and therefore you know
will be cavity to
is a lewd texts which was cool to about
with this week use technology the
the actual Susan pass the the substance
in life be fairly new
legal soon be issues effecting guy who
also
who's the you put the facts but with
legal substance the whole tools is the
liars including that wasn't sold change
the whole hydrology changes
the extensive days world away from the
you CG site situated close as you go in
since he's facing deep down
sense this news heat up to tonight is
above its that 60
counts within the Yahoo's so you feel
when he died consolidation just as the
circulation water within
the aquifers test is due out the heavy
metals in stock who
whatever else is in in in the host rocks
and then sit strings those in contents
which tend to settle to the bottom
arts the city's back into the news with
pool halls perhaps a
being Texan again use on to see
no evidence of contamination livestock
and with heavy metals and stuff like
that
and sauces socialize with this
technology so you're really talking
worse case scenario that the water
supply has the seven medals at
as well as the potential for it working
it's all
working its way to the surface and
effective for metals absolutely
we impart affairs part of the reason why
the sites in the UK so-called
attended the coastal sites with the
justification is is going to go
underground on to see you all in on the
sol en
to some extent Elm do many stack 2006
Lexus some extent but he's not too
all those in the fully understand is the
impact you have a has all the
surrounding officials you when you start
is good
substances lies deep down see it has not
gonna 62 surrounding lies in Seoul
so you national flows it at the moment
can begin to keep can be significantly
dilute
yes indeed as we saw earlier in the in
the show we talked about
a company from the Australia that was
bragging about the fact that it has so
many leases here
and you know it was absolutely stunning
to hear this man on the tape say that
you know what you've got to be very
careful to make sure that you get the
gas in the water level right and
everything when you're drilling and he's
the one that supposed to be the expert
indeed
another company had their operation shut
down because
get contaminated the water in Queens on
so it just seems to be a pandora's boxes
one that we actually need to be open it
well this is that this is the
mother the the whole point duties is
completely unnecessary
movie since home soon to calls from the
London School of Economics has been told
is quite categorically
we need to be leaving 6282 senses known
fossil fuel reserves is in the ground
Google week school food climate change
so
the very last thing we need to be doing
is trying to find
even more extreme forms a fossil fuels
to swipes at
the to inspect she hears outflows me
more thing I'll be so well i sed I is
is the perhaps the criminal waste whose
all
renewable resources he was because the
time to listen be started going to the
World
going up and down the beast which I will
be taken clean up the untaxed
that alone who provided nothin AG-two to
meet the average daily in the zulu
was too tight well it's something that
will be definitely watching as we move
forward and even a thank you again for
to decide to join as before what will
indeed be a very busy day
indeed it will and those things those
which uses
talk about it again is that each I but
he's the
Green Party candidate for member the
European Parliament
in the coming election and he joins us
today from his home in southwest
you're watching world view Dennis
Campbell stay right here
