Join us for a teach-in about natural gas drilling – hydraulic fracturing, also called fracking – what it is, the risks it poses to our land, air, and water, and the grassroots organizing taking place against it. It’s not just an East Coast issue — fracking is currently happening in the Los Alamos and Santa Barbara regions of California.
The teach-in will be facilitated by Alex Lotorto, who is a field organizer with the Energy Justice Network. He works with impacted communities living in the drilling fields. He is also part of Occupy Scranton. One of his goals is to build relationships between urban and rural groups around the country, so they can be in solidarity to support one another.
Alex says yes, it’s true — gas drilling has made water so toxic it can be lit on fire
