Description

Fracking has provided a boost to the US economy but fears about its impact on the environment have meant that it is not allowed in France, Germany or the state of New York. In the UK, a debate is raging over whether to allow the extraction of shale gas to go ahead. Andy Bounds visited Preston, one of the proposed fracking sites to talk to people on both sides of the argument. For information regarding your data privacy, visit acast.com/privacy
