Fracking paused at Lancashire site after largest earthquake yet
The largest earth tremor so far has been recorded at Cuadrilla’s fracking site near Blackpool, forcing the company to pause operations.
A minor earthquake of 1.5 magnitude struck late on Tuesday morning following a series of far smaller tremors, and after fossil fuel exploration had stopped for the day.
Recurring seismic events throughout October meant fracking at the new site in Lancashire had to be repeatedly put on hold.
Most events could not be felt, although locals did report feeling the most recent 1.5 tremor.
We need a proper government in place to stop these bastards.
