The National Research Council (NRC) has released a propaganda report on Hydraulic fracturing (a.k.a. fracking).

The NRC is comprised of four branches: the National Academy of Sciences, the National Academy of Engineering, the Institute of Medicine and the National Research Council.

Collectively, they produce intelligence that influences policy development, coerces public opinion, and controls the directional advances of science, medicine, and engineering.

Founded by Congressional Charter, the NRC members are scientists, physicians, researchers and Nobel laureates. Their funding comes from foundations, state governments, the private sector, and philanthropy; although their activities are mandated by the federal government.

The NRC admits that fracking causes earthquakes, yet claims that it is still a “low risk”. They blame carbon capture for “inducing seismic events”, although there is insufficient scientific data to make such a claim.

The explanation the NRC provides is that the injection of wastewater underground causes earthquakes that can be felt by people above ground. The NRC says that “the total balance of fluid introduced or removed underground” determines whether or not earthquakes occur.

The US government has not recorded any “significant loss of life” due to fracking, while they acknowledge that “some effects have been felt by local residents and have raised concern about additional seismic activity and its consequences” where the US government is conducting “energy development”.

Yet they are unwilling to associate the fracking to earthquakes because of “insufficient information” and lack of scientific congruency of “predictive models at specific energy sites”.

In an attempt to shift public focus from the practice of fracking, and alter social opinion, the authors of the report praise fracking as being the “best practices” designed to maintain balance and support the industry’s use of this dangerous way of extracting gas from the Earth.

In Europe, Benny Peiser of the Global Warming Policy Foundation (GWF), an alarmist think-tank that purveys the lie of man-made climate change, describes fracking as a “clean energy source”.

The GWF, working with the UN’s Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) dating back to the Copenhagen Climate Summit in 2009, claims to be “open-minded on the contested science of global warming” and “deeply concerned about the costs and other implications of many of the policies” being advocated by the global warming theorists.

However, the GWF are funded by private sector “individuals and charitable trusts” that control the course the foundation takes.

The GWF does not have “an official view on the science of global warming”. They collaborate with the IPCC to analyze global warming policies, economic impact and “other implications”.

A true globalist think-tank.

True scientific and observational data concludes that fracking leads to damage to the local environment through contamination, and negatively impacts Earth’s biosphere.

The Tyndall Centre, a collaborative of globalist alarmists working with the research and scientific community to advise business leaders, policy advisors and influence the mainstream media and public in general, has revealed through analysis that fracking chemical mixtures are known and suspected carcinogens that are not only toxic but mutagenic. When the chemicals return to the surface after injection, they carry with them heavy metals, radioactive materials and methane gas.

Ground water and aquifers are damaged by fracking, and those effects are impossible to reverse.

In another study, published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, the current method of carbon capture by storing the gas underground is directly causational to earthquakes.

The IPCC is responsible for the use of fracking as a pollution control to move away from coal-based electrical power.

Mark Zobacka and Steven Gorelick, professors in the departments of Geophysics and Environmental Earth System Science at Stanford University, surmise that earthquakes “will be triggered by injection of large volumes of CO2” and calls “large-scale carbon capture and storage (CCS) a risky and likely unsuccessful strategy for reducing greenhouse gas emissions.”

The IPCC would like to see CCS preformed on a global scale, asserting the practice would eliminate 3.5 billion tons of CO2 annually. However, the study admonishes:

Before embarking on projects to inject enormous volumes of CO2 at numerous sites around the world, it is important to note that over time periods of just a few decades, modern seismic networks have shown that earthquakes occur nearly everywhere in continental interiors.

Fracking is a scheme concocted by the UN’s IPCC as their replacement of coal usage and reduction of CO2 that is causing undeniable environmental damage, cancer risks to public health and detrimental seismic activity.

If allowed to continue, this practice will produce massive casualties and irreversible damage to the Earth at the hands of the global Elites at the UN.
