to ban fracking in Colorado and elsewhere, as some are trying to do. It may not be official 'Liberal' thinking, but, if there is abundant water and legitimate oversight, from everything I've read and heard, there is definitely a place for fracking, especially when, 'Compared to What?' There is no such thing as completely safe, cheap, reliable energy, SO, you gotta use the best available choice, which happens to be natural gas, from fracking.
AND, while we're on the subject, if stopping the Keystone pipeline would keep Canada from developing the tar sands, I'm all for stopping it. BUT, if Canada is gonna do it anyway, in a dirty, environmentally devastating scenario, and then ship the oil by rail, I guess the pipeline would better than rail cars. Kind of a gray area....
