Joint Oireachtas Committee on Climate Action

Hydraulic Fracturing Exploration: Discussion

Ms Julia Walsh:

Based on everything I laid out in my presentation and the company's own filings, it is clear that it will be driving fracking, as once the stranded asset is no longer stranded it can incur more fracking. The state of Pennsylvania has been bought off by the oil and gas industry and, at this point, its politicians no longer answer to the pleas of their constituents but rather to this massive industry. I am here to plead on behalf of those people and all others who are impacted by this.
