But the quakes were a fluke, the report continues, as the geology of the region was highly unusual to begin with.

This is what really pi$$es me off about current journalism. They start with a leadin that wants you to believe that such-and-such is responsible for something and then, at the last moment, after some percentage has stopped reading, they say; "Actually, the whole report is bogus." They ought to be shot.

Fracking is the new global warming for some of these leftist mutts.

Two small earthquakes that shook the Lancashire coast of northeast England and the nearby city of Blackpool earlier this year were probably caused by hydraulic fracturing, or fracking

This just in: Wind probably caused by vac truck en route to a fracking site.

Actually, Al Gore was seen in the area, farting. The real cause of the quakes was methane emission.

If I’m reading this right, the fracking didn’t “cause” the quake - plate tectonics did that. It precipitated the quake, but in doing so it moderated the effects of a quake that was going to happen there eventually, anyway.

What B.S.!!

These clowns look for any excuse for mankind to stop producing energy.
These elitists want to depopulate and de-industrialize the entire world.
They never want to volunteer to leave first, however.....

Remember this story, and keep it in mind when the Left says that they are on the side of “science” against the “forces of superstition and ignorance” on the Right.

This nonsense, this absurd cargo-cult superstition, is what they mean by “science.”

Remember back many years ago (I’m guessing maybe 30 or 40) that we conducted a nuke test on some remote Aleutian Island (was it Amchitka?) and the weenies were warning it could trigger an earthquake and tsunamis in Alaska?

Bad science alert.

Bad science alert.

Correlation is not necessarily causation.

Liberals...you’ll have to look at the math def of correlation...please avoid your normal smarmy wordy mushy liberal arts bull-Obama definitions, please.

We’re talkin’ science here.

Friction from fracking cause fractures.

The lubricants make the pushing smoother. Less likely severe jolts instead you have smooth sliding.

"U.K. Quakes Likely Caused by Fracking"

Those Brits should watch their language. ;-)

If by a miracle, the Pubs regain both houses of Congress and the WH, they ought to undo as many green pieces of baloney as possible and go drill full speed ahead to lower our energy prices, make jobs, and make the nation strong again.
