In Bath, NY: The Technology and Impact of High-pressure, Horizontal, Hydraulic Fracturing of Marcellus Shale & What We Can Do About It

Learn more now about the most important issue facing our region!
Natural gas companies are ready to set up thousands of gas wells in
our rural area.

We need to consider all the effects of using hydraulic fracturing to
extract natural gas from the Marcellus Shale. The scale of
development being considered can have a profoundly negative effect on
our economy, environment, health and quality of life.

Please bring a friend, neighbor, or co-worker to attend this talk with
you. Please invite your town councilperson or county legislator to
come and learn at this event sponsored by the League of Women Voters.

Professor Ingraffea's knowledge, work experience and style of
presentation make the topic understandable and its urgency clear.

We simply can't afford to ignore what is on our horizon. We need to
understand it and make our voices heard.
