I see nothing wrong with fracking - the anti-fracking movies and reports are nonsense. Talk about a group ignoring the science. The wind movie sort of lays out the predatory carpet bagger mentality that is created when government gives money to achieve numbers goals as opposed to thoughtful power grid planning. "businesses" are created to take advantage of people and government funding. In the end I think some liberals are surprised to learn all those energy companies are out to make a profit - not save the planet. Worse all wind and solar plants come with an equal size natural gas plant as backup - something not good/green about building two of everything. Science is great and it could probably solve most problems, but then you get corporations and "individual screwballs" involved and that WRECKS it for the rest of us..... I think Bill Gates would qualify as "individual screwball". Government incentivises bad business practices and entire industries that should not exist.
