A talk has been given in Gloucester today to highlight the risks of fracking to water supplies and public health.
The talk by American farmer, John Fenton, highlights severe impacts to water supplies and health in the U.S state of Wyoming, as gas company AGL plans to begin fracking in Gloucester in the near future.
Of public concern is whether the area is geologically sound for gas fracking with scientific officials yet to release their reports on fracking in the area.
