"You might just need a paper bag to breathe into in case you're hyperventilating."

We are quite calm over here in the UK Peeny, but thanks for your concern.

It must be crushing for you to have learned that "Overall, approximately 99% of the responses were opposed to fracking and fewer than 1% were in favour." and that " KPMG concluded in their report on the economic impact of an unconventional oil and gas industry in Scotland that under their central development scenario, just 0.1% annually would on average be added to Scottish GDP should fracking be given the go-ahead."

The conclusion that "there is no social licence for unconventional oil and gas to be taken forward at this time, and the research we have conducted does not provide a strong enough basis from which to adequately address those communities’ concerns" is equally applicable South of the Border.

If you are planning on investing in UK fracking you had better hope Boris ups his game and keeps his foot out of his mouth as he is the Conservatives' last hope of clinging onto power - Ooops - too late, he's done it again. When Labour do get in (and that loooks more likely every day) I the entire UK will be frack free.
